When the Moon is Full

When the Moon is Full (2021) by Zaman Jassim presents a contemplative installation composed of illuminated discs, projected imagery, and sound. The work reflects on themes of farewell, time, and the fleeting beauty of human experience. Drawing a poetic parallel between moonlight and emotional connection, Jassim portrays the moon’s glow as symbolic of the light we give and receive in life.
The piece uses holographic light and layered audio to immerse viewers in a sensory space that feels detached from time. Through its circular forms and celestial references, the work suggests that memory, like moonlight, continues to resonate even after departure.

Inspired by earlier projects such as Birth and The Scent of My Loved Ones, Jassim’s approach merges visual art with cultural symbolism.

When the Moon is Full invites viewers to pause and reflect offering a quiet moment of emotional stillness within an ever-moving world.
