Original artwork description
The commitee
In this acrylic (30X40 inch) painting, inspired by Sonallah Ibrahim Ibrahim's novel The Committee, five middle-aged men stand together, facing the painter. Each man, dressed in formal attire, exudes a sense of quiet authority. They are sipping glasses of wine and casually smoking cigars, their postures relaxed yet deliberate. The atmosphere is intimate, with the dim lighting and deep shadows casting a contemplative tone. The faded pink background is blurred, keeping the focus on the group of men and their unspoken understanding. The color palette is warm, with browns, greens, purples , and blues, creating a luxurious, yet somber mood.
The Committee by Sunallah Ibrahim is a novel that explores the lives of ordinary individuals who find themselves ensnared by the suffocating bureaucracy of an oppressive society. It focuses on the protagonist’s experiences with a mysterious committee that controls his fate, reflecting themes of power, alienation, and the struggle for personal autonomy in a tightly controlled world.
