Since October 11, Mabrouk El Kamel's Exhibition: Where Color Becomes a Language

Mabrouk El Kamel's artwork has been on display since October 11, and will continue to be showcased until the end of the month. The exhibition, titled "Semis," reveals the soul of matter through the artist's use of color, where objects become beings and things become presences.

A quote from Victor Hugo's "Saison des semailles le soir" ("The Season of Sowing in the Evening") illustrates the pictorial seeds sown by Mabrouk El Kamel: "Le geste auguste du semeur" ("The August Gesture of the Sower"). This phrase embodies the epic poetry found in El Kamel's work, where his lyricism is evident on the surface of the canvas. The resources and renewals, sometimes serious and sometimes playful, situated between the static and the dynamic, give his works a festive air, where the gesture becomes reality. This reality moves towards a light imbued with spirituality, reminiscent of those woven tapestries with a thousand graphics that tell the story of passing time.

El Kamel's composition is a cultural and cultural blend, where nature is queen, echoing the words of Lamartine: "La nature est là qui t’invite et qui t’aime" ("Nature is there, inviting you and loving you"). The colored poetry of the artist highlights the most beautiful aspect of art: contemplation.
