The Veins of Sidon #1

Oil on Canvas · 42 × 59 cm · 2020

The Veins of Sidon draws the eye upward through a narrow passageway, where ancient walls rise close and an intricate network of wires cuts across the sky. This is not mere architecture — it is anatomy. Each wire, each shutter, each weathered stone pulses with the life of centuries. The confined space becomes a spiritual corridor, guiding the viewer into the living heart of the old city. It is a portrait of Sidon not as a relic, but as a body alive — breathing, enduring, eternal. There's a companion piece that turns this into a two-part diptych. Click here
