Fire in the hole. Diana Al-Hadid

Începusem să scriu acum ceva timp, când aveam, ce e drept, şi mintea mai limpede, despre artişti arabi. Seria de posturi am denumit-o Fire in the hole. Spuneam atunci că am ales acest titlu din dorinţa de a prezenta arta arabă ca o contra-pondere la frica arabă. Sintagmei fire in the hole i-am metaforizat semnificaţiile, sugerînd explozia, nu a unei bombe, ci a artei arabe, în sensul său larg.

După ce am vorbit despre  Hassan Khan (muzician şi scriitor) şi despre Reem Al Faisal (fotograf), acum îmi face plăcere să vă vorbesc şi despre Diana Al-Hadid.

Fire in the hole. Reem Al Faisal

« I like to define myself as a Muslim artist, sprung from my native Saudi culture and history. In my art I am seeking to show signs of the Divine in nature and in Man. For me, light is one of the many manifestations of God. Which He casts in our path through life to remind us of His constant presence in ourselves and in every place. Every photograph is a pattern of light and shade. For me, my photography is a way to praise God’s glory in the universe. »
