Series of architectural forms within a gray background

In this composition, by Salman Abbas, a series of architectural structures float within a hazy gray background. An array of patterning rendered in earthy colors decorates the floating architectural forms. Domes and latticework windows cast shadows onto the backdrop in various directions belying the strict identification of a light source; thus, denying the reality of the space in which these structures inhabit.

Salman Abbas
