Light, Shadow and Memory converge here.Wander through the pieces and let the work lead you home.
Each work is a palimpsest of place and memory—layers of ancient reliefs and archaeological echoes rubbing shoulders with expressionist urgency, abstract gesture and symbolic hush. The cultures of East and West, the intimacies of nature and the grandeur of distant traditions, all feed her palette and expand the vocabulary of the work. Nothing here is accidental; every element enriches the whole. An ethereal atmosphere—misty, mystical—settles across the canvas, as if time itself has pooled and seeped into the paint. Her surfaces seem to breathe between eras: archaic traces and contemporary impulse fuse into a single, timeless field. That quality gives the work its haunting power; it does not merely depict a place, it summons its memory.

Ancient graffiti The rock drawings of Al Harrah desert are considered by some to be one of the first examples of graffiti and a very early form of regional artistic expression. When Jordanian visual artist Rawan Al Adwan stumbled upon Safaitic sketches of camels, gazelles & hunters, she became determined to bring her ancestors' art alive. Al Adwan believes that by recreating the images on canvas, she could breathe life into a forgotten ancient society of talented people. “I produced paintings that reflected their essence, but with a new composition and colour,” she told Inspire Middle East. “These people were educated, they used to teach reading & writing. Also, they taught philosophy and astronomy, which was very attractive to me. So, I worked through my paintings to promote them and exhibit them in different galleries in Jordan and abroad.“ interviewed by Euronews Published on 21/10/2020 - 12:58 GMT+2
