The subjects, depicted in masks, evoke themes of identity and concealment. The piece recalls elements of Persian miniatures, with its detailed lines and enigmatic narrative. Ababri’s introspective style explores societal tensions and personal experiences, merging sociology with art in a reflective practice.
