Description: In Against the Wall, a lone figure bends under an unseen weight, arms pulled behind, caught between confinement and defiance. The harsh orange and red backdrop contrasts with the weary posture, suggesting a burden carried silently, perhaps the emotional or societal weight of existence. Sirvan Kanaani conveys a powerful sense of pressure and perseverance, and the geometry of space mirrors the figure's mental entrapment.
About the artist: Sirvan Kanaani is a self-taught painter who began his creative journey with calligraphy. Inspired by everyday life, his works blend human figures with natural and architectural forms.
