Aboudia's painting, La Victoire, presents a powerful array of symbols rendered with raw, childlike energy. The most striking motif is the raised hand—a gesture of victory or greeting—that echoes across cultures and time. Consider the classical Roman salute, transformed through epochs into a symbol laden with diverse, often contradictory, meanings. Here, in Aboudia's visceral style, the raised hand transcends simple triumph. It becomes an emblem of survival, resilience, and communal strength. We see the same gesture across time in Goya, Delacroix and Picasso. The large, unblinking eyes convey a deep sense of awareness. These figures bear witness to turmoil, reflecting the collective memory of hardship and the subconscious desire for liberation. The visual language is one of primal expression, engaging the viewer on an instinctual level. The symbols of La Victoire are not static; they pulse with the lived experiences of a community, resurfacing and evolving with each generation.
