Title A name given to the resource Title not known (al-Qudsi 3) Subject The topic of the resource Abstracted Composition of Line and Color Description An account of the resource The distinguishing characteristic of this work, by Alkodsy, is the pervasive use of outline to delineate shape. The form of a human head and neck, along with two eyes and a nose, are implied with undulating and circular line formations at the center of the composition. Color fields also take precedence as patches of light blue, green, and black move the viewer’s eye over the picture plane.

Although visual specificity is not the priority with this representation, figures can be identified and subject matter inferred. Central to this composition is a horse and carriage pair seemingly in motion. In the middle ground a market stall stands open complimenting the background of implied buildings.

The random, jagged cuts rendered at the base of the picture plane recall that of crevasses traversing a barren peak. The remainder of the canvas is filled with a misty application of grays and blacks with a dappled white cloud taking a central position.

A vignette with a coffee pot and watermelon sits at the foreground of the composition while a cityscape recedes into the distance of the background.

Title A name given to the resource Title not known (Al-Qaddo 2) Subject The topic of the resource Reclining Nude on Red Carpet Description An account of the resource Here Al-Qaddo has rendered a familiar subject in the realm of artistic representation, the reclining nude. Again the artist has combined the dimensions with the flatness of the carpet and background coupled with the round fleshiness of the nude. This combination taken with the contortion of the female’s legs and uneven dappling of warm color tones belies the reality of this representation and adds a mythical quality to the composition.

The figures appear to function apart from one another engaged in their own world of activity. Although not fully articulated, the corporality of the females’ bodies is contrasted with the flat, abstracted space in which they are placed. Despite the lack of three-dimensionality, the background exhibits complex configurations of color and shape.
