Work
Abboud uses a combination of drawing, video, installation, speech, performance, text and sculpture[5] to portray themes of memory, loss, belonging, and longing.[6] She draws on her own background and Palestinian culture and traditions in her installations.[6] Abboud explores memory and storytelling and oral history through the body and her use of Palestinian folklore and fairy tales. Her art frequently features the Palestinian landscape.[6] She focuses on remembering, the impact of memory fragmentation, and how history impacts one person's current life.
Abboud reinterprets fairytales in her work. She uses the well-known story of Rapunzel to explore the life of Arab women. In this series she uses pencil sketches, photos, lace, and seeds to comment on and depict the woman's normative place in society. She highlights the fact that the image of the domestic woman is relevant in many cultures.

This three-channel video installation highlights the 1920 study performed by Dr. Tawfiq Canaan about water demons and "haunted" sites in Palestine such as springs.[9] About worked together with Issa Freij,[10] a Palestinian filmmaker, to document the sites. The installation features video of the sites featured in the 1920 study that once contained springs and other water features that have since been lost, but whose locations are part of Palestinian folklore.[11] Along with the video there is audio of Abboud reading text from the study.[6]
