Beni Mrirt Modernist Constellation — Primary Planes
Beni Mrirt Modernist Constellation — Primary Planes (335 × 220 cm)
From the Middle Atlas highlands, a contemporary Beni Mrirt that reframes Amazigh geometry through modernist color planes: overlapping fields of indigo, sky, saffron, and carmine anchor a quiet ivory expanse. The composition reads like a painter’s study—angled forms in dynamic balance, grounded by a soft, luminous field.
