Abstract

Artworks, like dreams, are the result of the fusion of imagination with symbols of artistic and personal dimensions. The artist aims at what is indirect, because he wants to make his dream multifaceted, he must know his hidden motives, yet he should not reveal it, instead he must catch symbolic radiations and link them together in an artistic form in such a way that the public is captured With the power of the sublime, without the destruction of the vital illusion, otherwise art would become grand
The contemporary artist has worked on signs and symbols and joined them to his work after revealing their aesthetic secrets, imagined and understood together, so that the symbols form a wide knowledge space and become a reference and a reference to the artists, and broadcast their ideas and expression of their beliefs and social attitudes, and perhaps represent symbols imaginary world to face the reality of living, Artworks depend on complex symbols that enrich the aesthetic experience.
