About this artwork
“Darawiches” by Etab Hreib captures the sacred rhythm of movement a visual dance between devotion and transcendence. Torn fragments of paper, painted textures, and glimmers of color converge into a city alive with whirling forms the dervishes in mid-turn, their white robes spiraling like prayers released into air. At the heart of the composition, architecture and spirit merge. Minarets rise above swirling bodies, domes shimmer beneath a fractured sky, and the entire scene vibrates with the pulse of divine repetition motion as meditation, chaos as grace.

About the Artist
Etab Hreib’s life has been one of motion, resistance and luminous creation. From the shifting houses of her Syrian childhood, moving from Aleppo to Tartus and finally settling in Damascus, she learned early that home is more than bricks: it is a memory, a colour, a departure.
Her style is expressive-abstract watercolor narrative, that swirl with green vigour, sky-blue liberations, streaks of red rebellion, and deep black grief. Yet the overall palette remains rich, optimistic, full of possibility rather than surrender. She creates simple motifs, a house on a hillside, a tree leaning toward the wind, a window open to dusk, but imbues them with emotional depth and personal geography.
