Occasionally I run across art I really like and therefore desire to share. The above painting is by Betool Al-Fekaiki. She writes:
“For me, a painting is a key to unlock the internal world or the private sphere which would be impenetrable otherwise. I do not like to hide the keys to my soul’s many gates and I do not veil the thoughts which my inner world is rich with. My art is concerned with desire and loss, with distance and nearness and with memories and hopes. It is as such because I believe that it is a human right to express yourself without the slightest fear. Accordingly, one can be fully responsible for one’s soul and one’s very own self.”
