Wounded | Mixed Media on Canvas | 2018 | 160 x 80 cm The image that inspired me to produce this painting was one that shows the back of a man about to be treated for his bullet wounds. His photograph was taken in a field hospital in Douma, Syria, on the 20th of September in 2014 after several airstrikes. The painting reflects the emotions I experienced when I saw the picture of his wounds, since it reminded me of other Syrians who faced death from bullet wounds. Also, I wanted to reflect his strength and how that flowed through to me, in that, despite being injured, and the pain that he must be feeling, the figure in the picture was still standing on his feet.

Untitled | Mixed Media on Canvas | 2019 | 240 x 160 cm This painting represents the emotions associated with the revolutionary moment, reflecting its ups and downs, and growth and fading of enthusiasm. I sought to express the impact of the sounds of war on myself and other Syrians at the moment of isolation, loneliness, nostalgia, fear, loss of hope, despair. There is an expressive dimension that is almost akin to a musicality, both in terms of its composition and what it is seeking to communicate. There is also a harmony arising from the repetition of the parallel lines of the figures in this painting.

The Migrant | Mixed Media on Canvas | 2016 | 160 x 80 cm Nour painted a colourful skyline and made the painted character stand out on it. The treatment of the character is suggestive of both a human and a bird-like form. Numerous aspects of this painting indicate that the central figure has survived a violent event and is still suffering from its effects, such as the presence of the word ‘blood’ in Arabic on the body of the bird, the colour flow, which suggests bleeding, and various brush marks that refer to the lack of internal stability and the multiplicity of psychological conditions that I passed through when producing this painting.
