About the work

Two simplified, ancient-looking figures stand side by side in quiet proximity, their forms emerging from a richly textured surface of layered earthy browns, rusts, and dark tones. The heavily worked mixed media ground gives the piece a weathered, archaeological quality, as if the figures have been unearthed from stone.

Bader Mahasneh (Jordan, 1977–present).

About the artist

Bader Mahasneh — Wooden Sculpture, 60 × 180 cm (representative image)
Bader Mahasneh

Jordan, b. 1977

Bader Mahasneh (b. 1977, Jordan) is a contemporary Jordanian artist recognized for his dynamic engagement with painting and mixed media. His work often explores themes of identity, memory, and the interplay between abstraction and figuration, employing a vibrant palette and expressive brushwork. Mahasneh’s artistic practice reflects a deep connection to his cultural heritage while also engaging with broader contemporary art discourses.

Mahasneh has exhibited widely in Jordan and the broader Middle East, with notable institutional exhibitions at venues such as the Jordan National Gallery of Fine Arts. His participation in group and solo exhibitions has contributed to his reputation as a significant figure in the Jordanian art scene. While his works are sought after by collectors in the region, there is no public record of sales at major international auction houses such as Christie’s, Sotheby’s, or Bonhams as of the latest available data. Mahasneh continues to live and work in Jordan, contributing to the development of contemporary art in the country.

Mixed media

Works combining two or more materials — paint, collage, found objects, text, sand — in a single piece. The approach lets artists layer meaning and material, and is widely used in modern and contemporary MENA art.

Expressionism

Art that prioritizes emotion and inner experience over realistic depiction, using distortion, bold color, and energetic mark-making. In the region it gave modern artists a language for memory, displacement, and identity.
