An-Nahit, The Invisible Tears

Acrylic on canvas, 2023 (33 x 41 cm)

This painting is a visual representation of the Arabic term "An-Nahit" (النَّحِيطُ), which refers to tears that remain unexpressed and accumulate in the heart. Through the central figure, engulfed by the turbulent sea, one can imagine a man overwhelmed by suffering and grief. His inner turmoil contrasts sharply with the peaceful surroundings. This suggests that despite his desire to blend into the scenery, his pain is too intense to achieve.
