Little Did I Know

Little Did I Know is a visual dialogue where many bridges are burned between time and intuition, land and identity, serendipity and fate, family and domesticities.

Eslam Abd El Salam is a visual artist based in Belfast, Northern Ireland. His work focuses on walking as a pedagogical practice and is centered around the body: the body in motion, in contact with nature and in the presence of other bodies.

Through the mediums of analogue photography, polaroids, text and mixed media, Eslam considers notions of synchronicity, specifically in relation to friendship and serendipitous encounters with others. Eslam’s photography often takes place in domestic settings, spaces in which playfulness and vulnerability combine. Deeply embedded in spirituality, Eslam’s work expands on what it means to surrender to the present moment, with others and in nature, and with intuition as a guiding principle.

Embracing naivety in all its forms, Eslam’s work views openness as a means of creating mutual recognition.
