About the work

A fragmented male bust emerges from a blazing red ground, its face rendered in loose gestural strokes of black, white, and acid yellow with trails of black paint dripping down the chest. The painting pulses with raw emotional intensity, the figure caught between dissolution and defiance.

Ahmad Turki (Jordan, 1995–present).
