Lost Sea 2015

"Lost Sea" (2015) by Sliman Mansour depicts two figures, likely women, standing by a body of water. The figures are dressed in traditional attire, and one carries a basket of oranges. The scene is rendered in a vibrant palette, with a focus on simplified forms and geometric patterns, characteristic of Mansour's style. The artist's unique blend of realism and abstraction invites viewers to explore the cultural and symbolic layers embedded in the composition. The painting's title and subject matter suggest themes of tradition, loss, and the enduring connection between humanity and the natural world.
