Origins of Being (1991) Original Oil Painting by Rakhmet Redzhepov

"Origins of Being" canvas, oil, 44x55cm. 1991
A haunting, surrealist oil painting exploring biblical allegories, human lineage, and cosmic birth. The composition features two large, intense faces—a bald male and a long-haired female figure—gazing deeply past each other. Between them stands a massive, gnarled tree with bare branches, its roots holding a fragile, pale infant creature within the earth. Combining smooth skin rendering with expressive wood grain, the artwork utilizes a nostalgic palette of soft pink, blue, and brown to evoke an ancient, dreamlike desert myth, complete with a tiny distant camel.
