Process
  • 01

    Gathering

    Arabic dailies, French-language magazines, English-language fragments. Clippings are sorted and stored: each canvas begins with an archive.

  • 02

    Composition

    The surface is built in layers: printed fragments, transparent washes, acrylic impasto.

  • 03

    Pigment

    Warm palette — cadmium yellow, raw sienna, vermilion red, petrol blue. Wide brushes for the grounds, long brushes for the contours.

  • 04

    Rest

    Long drying, cold retouches, final varnish. Time is part of the medium.
