The Distance Between Us

Samar Hussein Baghdad, Sweden

The Distance Between Us examines emotional separation and the silent weight of relationships. The figures — outlined in white against vibrant planes of blue, red, and ochre — exist in the same space yet remain disconnected. The transparent contours suggest both presence and absence, while the bold color fields evoke tension, memory, and longing.

Through this composition, Samar Hussein transforms the human form into a dialogue of geometry and feeling — an abstract portrait of distance, where color becomes emotion and line becomes silence.
