About this artwork
Figures rise and dissolve within a storm of color, their bodies formed from fiery reds, luminous yellows, and oceanic blues. They stand like guardians of memory, suspended between shadow and light, their presence both haunting and tender. The canvas burns with movement, echoing the turbulence of time and the fragility of human bonds.
Created in 2010, this work anticipates Ahmad Moualla’s later explorations of violence, exile, and resilience. The abstraction of color and form allows each viewer to find their own reflection in the faces of the crowd.
This piece is a testament to Moualla’s power to merge personal histories with collective memory. For collectors, it stands as a reminder of the fleeting opportunity to secure works that bridge the intimate and the monumental.

About the Artist
Ahmad Moualla (b. 1958, Banyas, Syria) is one of the most influential figures in contemporary Syrian art. A painter, graphic designer, and professor, he studied at Damascus University and the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. Known for his large-scale, theatrical canvases that blend expressive figures with Arabic calligraphy, Moualla’s work explores themes of identity, memory, and power with striking emotional intensity.
His paintings have been exhibited widely across Europe, the Middle East, and North America, and are part of prestigious institutional and private collections. Moualla’s significance extends to the global art market, with his works featured in major auctions at Christie’s and Sotheby’s. As a pioneer who introduced performance into Syrian visual art, he continues to shape the region’s cultural landscape with vision and depth.
