About the work

A striking diptych print presents a reclining human figure in the upper panel, body marked with geometric grid lines, while the lower panel reveals fragmented ancient reliefs inscribed with Arabic script and symbolic eyes. The stark black and white contrast and dense linework evoke a haunting dialogue between the human body and cultural memory.
