Mustafa Zaman identifies the political elements in a given social milieu. To lay bare the social and political realities of his time, the artist constructs a world stilted on satire - one that apparently runs parallel to the actual world. He lifts the veil on the manifold futile aspects of the present reality by conjuring up visions that are often unsettling.

His humans, sometimes represented in clusters, readily give away the sense of alienation they are blighted by and at times even express mental disquiet. Against the backdrop of the great social construction which is today’s reality and the threads that bind things together, these humans and their actions or inactivity also bring to the surface social divide and human degradation.
From this perspective, Mustafa can be seen as a purveyor of angst. The pathologies of the industrial society are his mainstay - manifested in both his form and colour. However, he tends to let his humans, clustered together or mutated to various degrees, travel further and reach a state of oblivion, where against a desolate space they accept their fate, and even poke fun at it blithely.
Mustafa’s imagery reassuringly points out the fact that the great armada of capitalism is sinking with everyone onboard..
