About the artwork

This digital artwork shows an enchanting and abstract rendering of a monumental architectural space inspired by the Hassan II mosque in Casablanca, Morocco. The composition is rich in Islamic influences, characterised by ornate arched doorways, columns and a series of circular motifs alluding to traditional mosaic art. The colour palette consists of a combination of deep blue and soft yellow-beige tones, evoking a dreamy, almost mystical atmosphere.

The image appears to have been manipulated through a digital filter, giving it a painterly texture reminiscent of a combination of watercolour and etching techniques. The reflection on the shiny floor visually doubles the architectural elements, creating a sense of depth and symmetry. This reflection effect reinforces the idea of serenity and spirituality often associated with religious buildings.

Light plays a central role in this composition. It seems to flow through the arches and is reflected in the surface below, as if divine or transcendent in nature. The lack of human presence gives the artwork a timeless and almost sacred feel.

Although the image is abstract and somewhat alienating due to the texture and colour filter, the architectural features remain recognisable and evocative. The result is a visual meditation on beauty, silence and sanctity, subtly intertwining traditional elements of Islamic art with a modern, digital visual language.
