Description

A person embraces themselves as if they cannot escape their own body — an expression of internal helplessness, where they reconcile with themselves and their pain in the same moment. The body becomes an invisible prison, and when the person attempts to escape, they find themselves returning to the same place, unable to escape the deep feeling that fills them. This embrace becomes an attempt to ease the weight of the body, expressing the desire to escape the pain rooted within. But in the end, the person faces their own self, reconciles with their pain and existence, as if they know that escape is not an option. Acceptance and embrace are the only ways to ease the soul.

Preservation Notes

Osama's works have all been destroyed since October 7 2023, during what is now termed one of the most departing modern day holocaust's of our generation. These latest sketches are all done on his laptop that he has managed to salvage, and uses it as so many in his circumstance as an artistic tool to create and keep creating his sketches and drawings.
