“Eight Phases” by Farah Abdelhak | AP 3-D Art and Design

Farah Abdelhak’s work was selected for the 2025 AP Art and Design Digital Exhibit, which features exceptional artwork from AP students’ final portfolios. See our story or highlight to learn more about Farah’s work.

From Farah: "I chose to work entirely in silver to evoke the luminous quality of the moon, a brightness that cuts through darkness and reflects guidance. Each curved phase was shaped to resemble the moon’s natural contours, while the smooth, rounded hemispheres at the top and bottom mirror its serene, celestial form. Drawing from both Greek mythology and Islamic symbolism, the moon represents a divine presence that helps guide those who are lost, whether through night or through life itself. By arranging the eight lunar phases on a spinning top, I invite viewers to experience both individuality and unity: When still, each phase stands distinct; when spun, they blur into one glowing whole. This transformation mirrors the way faith, time, and motion intertwine, revealing light and harmony within continual change."
