In this body of work at XVA Gallery, Al Mohasen engages with the notion of truth as a visual experience, employing a practice that combines colour, poetic reference and expressive techniques to encourage viewers to look beyond surface appearances. His images evoke emotion, hope and human resilience, even when reality feels complex or contradictory. The artist’s recent works merge figuration and symbolic mark-making within intense colour fields, creating a visual register that oscillates between the real and the imagined. The exhibition is conceived as a sensory pathway that prompts reflection on how truth is perceived and conveyed, and on the emancipatory potential of visual language. Born in Qatif, Saudi Arabia, in 1971, Hussein Al Mohasen has been active on the international art scene for over two decades. His practice is marked by a sustained engagement with audiences and environments, positioning images as narrative incisions that capture both collective and personal experience.
