TITLE
My mind yields easily, To the unrelenting pressure of the sun

ARTIST
Bassam Al Sabah

ABOUT THE WORK
My mind yields easily, To the unrelenting pressure of the sun is a computer-generated image of a dead horse enveloped by a lush field. Through the use of a refractive image plane, the horse and its surroundings have been reduced to an otherworldly, shimmering painterly abstraction.

This work is printed on Hahnemuhle Photo Rag, a finely-textured cotton paper that brings out the image’s high density and vivid deep colours.
