    Description

    dream city
    In 2000 I left my homeland Iraq and the city of Baghdad and had lived ever since in Berlin. Before I left, I was very active culturally. Baghdad was then the Mecca of cultural events. In the cafes, the writers' union, and the galleries, the intellectuals gathered and discussed the latest activities.
    I missed all of that when I came to Germany. At my age it was not easy to leave a cultural stage, where I know every corner very well and know most of the people who are involved in their activities, to start a new beginning.
    In 2012 I felt able to paint a new generation of paintings in which I “rebuild” Baghdad and all the destructed cities according to my wishes: clean and harmonious. I have called it "the dream city".

    Concept

    The tree of letters
    Inks, watercolour, and golden tissues on paper
    28x35 cm.
    The main part of this painting is a treetop-like mass consisting of overlapping writings from many texts by love poets. It is written using a specific Arabic font called ALDIWANI which is flexible and offers a lot of freedom.
    The lower part of the composition shows the main trunk that holds the treetop. It's a piece of collage that I used gold tissues. parallel to this central trunk there are another two right and left to it. There are also three-square forms that contain the calligraphy of a different type of font.
    The entire composition showed a balance between masses and spaces. The musical harmony was largely seen as a prerequisite for the creation of this piece.
