Mosquée de la Divinité - Print

This painting is a pursuit of a feeling I experienced during an evening in Dakar, Senegal. While heading toward a mosque for Maghrib prayer, the sight of the sun setting behind its silhouette was an unexpected treasure—a fleeting moment of profound peace that no photograph could ever capture.

The effort to translate this spiritual awe onto canvas was long and meticulous, but the result was that much sweeter. This work is a visual testament to the guiding principle found in Surah An-Najm (53:39): "that man will only have what he has worked towards." It is a reminder that the greatest rewards, both spiritual and artistic, are born from earnest effort and dedication.
