This piece from Sorme Arab's "Sweet Dreams" collection is a striking mixed media work that blends the classical with the contemporary. The artist utilizes black, white, and silver acrylic paints to form the primary base of the canvas, which is then artfully contrasted with bright red threaded needlework. This vibrant red thread stands out vividly against the neutral tones, symbolizing a fresh red rose blooming from the canvas. The intentional weathering of the painting by Arab adds a timeless quality, creating a dynamic interplay between the old and the new.
