History

Their approach to artwork has largely involved sampling both archival material and self-authored materials, in the mediums of sounds, images, text, objects, and performance; and then creating something new. Abbas and Abou-Rahme coined the term "archival multitude," and describe the act of archiving as a performance anyone could participate in.[6]

Their work has been featured in exhibitions at the ICA Philadelphia, Portikus, The Palestinian Museum, Kunsthalle Wien, the Museum of Modern Art, Warsaw, and the ICA London.[7] In 2009, Abbas and Abou-Rahme performed with the hip-hop trio Ramallah Underground, as the Ramallah Syndrome project which was featured in the Palestine Exhibition at the 53rd Venice Biennale.[5] Abou-Rahme and Abbas exhibited in the 12th Berlin Biennale (2022).[2] They exhibited "May amnesia never kiss us on the mouth" (2022) at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City; which was part of an ongoing series started in 2020 about Palestinian loss, colonial violence, displacement, and forced migration.[8][9][10][11]

They were award recipients of the Sharjah Biennale Prize (2015) and the Abraaj Prize (2016).[7]
