Al Riwaq Art Space

“Origins” focuses on the traditional practice within the current contemporary art scene. This joint exhibition is derived from the roots and origins of the artist’s lives and is also a reflection of the depths in which Bahrain has had an influence over their practice.

These artists come-out from their “Origins” as manifestations in drawings and paintings. The intention of this exhibition is not to rule the art work by the construction of a theme; rather, this exhibition is tied together through simplicity of thought from each artist’s individual perspective on lively hood.

Each artist has been engaged in a process of expression towards their innermost being searching for their intimate interpretation of roots. Each artist has tried to manifest their ideas that have been taken from fragments of their memory, to be found and exuded within a different dimension.

Maha Al Sahaf has discovered her origins in her family members through the distorted lens of the memory while Mariam has found them by turning her life into a mythology.
