Following the Hama Massacre of 1981, Khouzayma Alwany’s work revolved around the dramatic depiction of monsters and beasts, an allusion to humanity with all of its injustice and the Syrian society in a state of devastation. Similar to “Untitled” each work has a painted border or a frame whose color is the same as the character or action in the center. Often the monster-like figures expand beyond or escape their borders. In this work, a warrior-like bird-headed figure stands with hanging genitals, a sword on his belt and snake in his hand - symbols of masculinity, virility and conquest.
