(Ref No 454)

This piece represents late Mohamed Awad’s most intimate abstraction — a compact and powerful meditation on structure, gesture, and the raw voice of color. Earth tones dominate the surface, from umber and ochre to sienna, layered with assertive strokes of black and a sudden flash of blue — a breath of life amid the silence. The form at the center hovers between figuration and symbol: it may be read as a shrouded figure, a relic, or a sacred vessel. Awad allows texture to speak where words cannot — the scraped, impastoed surface becomes an echo of emotion, memory, and spiritual endurance. Executed in the late phase of his practice, this piece serves as a visual coda to his lifelong exploration of humanity and faith through abstraction. It stands as a poignant reminder that silence itself can be the most eloquent form of expression.
