“A Thousand And One Nights”

“A Thousand and One Nights” tells the story of the timeless bond between Bedouins and their horses – a connection shaped not by domination, but by a mutual trust. Historically, Arabian horses were not only a means of transport or a symbol of status – they were companions whose presence was deeply woven into everyday life.

The two mares depicted are not imaginary icons, but real individuals known to the artist through her daily veterinary practice. Their calm nature, sensitivity and quiet presence inspired the serene night scene, reflecting loyalty, gentleness and an unspoken communication.

The tent, fire and the quiet desert create an intimate space suspended between memory and reality. The painting reminds us how deeply intertwined human and equine histories remain in the cultural narrative of the desert.
