Dunya, Everything is ephemeral

Acrylic on canvas, 2022 (40 x 50 cm)

The name of this painting, "Dunya" (دُنْيا), which translates from Arabic as "life of this world," refers to its ephemeral nature. The two landscapes at the center of the painting showcase the splendor and diversity of the creation that surrounds us. They are placed within an hourglass, the most prominent element of the work, evoking the passage of time and showing that everything around us is destined for an inevitable end.
