Art
Omar has expressed concern about environmental and social issues through his art, such as through the Hazardous Beauty series which explores the environmental impact of haze. His works re-interpret the issues of forest fires, haze, and overdevelopment by depicting the resilience of people who were tested under such tragic and harsh living conditions. He also uses the collage technique in search of the meaning of materiality as well as the intertwining relations between natural beings and human creation.
