Textured Whispers
Artist / Mahmoud Abd Elmouz Egypt (2025)Textured Whispers This mixed-media piece combines the fluidity and color of acrylic paint with the texture and potential narrative of newspaper. The newspaper elements are likely incorporated into the surface, either as collage or perhaps partially obscured by layers of paint. This creates a textured surface with visual depth and hints of underlying text and imagery. The acrylic paint is applied in a somewhat abstract or non-representational manner, with washes and strokes of color – in this case, predominantly muted tones of white, pink, and hints of other colors. There might be areas of thicker paint application adding to the texture. The integration of newspaper suggests themes of layering, time, memory, or communication. The visible (or partially visible) text and images from the newspaper might add subtle layers of meaning or contrast with the abstract painted elements. The overall effect is likely one of a textured surface that invites closer inspection, where the interplay between the painted gestures and the embedded newspaper creates a unique visual dialogue. The composition appears to have a central vertical emphasis with more defined forms in the middle and lower sections.
