This painting by Saudi artist Abdulrahman Alsoliman (2012, acrylic on canvas) reflects his characteristic blend of abstraction and hints of architectural form.
The dominant earthy red and golden yellow tones create a warm, almost desert-like atmosphere, while layered lines and shapes suggest fragments of arches, doors, or city walls. The drips, grids, and textured surfaces evoke weathered facades and the passage of time, turning the composition into a poetic memory of traditional urban landscapes. It balances geometry and spontaneity, celebrating heritage while remaining firmly modern.
