Composition's aesthetics in Jehad Al Ameri's solo exhibition "Field"

Abstract

This study explores the aesthetic compositions employed by Jehad Al-Ameri in his solo exhibition "Field." It examines his depiction of landscapes using an expressive, abstract style, capturing the essence of fields and the intrinsic properties of soil. Al-Ameri incorporated colors such as yellow and blue to symbolically express earthy themes, with black featuring prominently across his works. The paper highlights the formation of abstract blocks within the paintings, which include elements like houses, trees, rocks, and water—each reflecting the Jordanian environment, particularly the Jordan Valley. This approach allowed viewers to resonate with the artwork, appreciating the authenticity and harmony in the composition of lines and shapes. The study addresses how Al-Amari's aesthetic decisions in composition serve his graphic works, questioning whether the varied techniques he employed contribute to creating innovative and distinctive compositions. It also considers if these artistic choices effectively convey the thematic intent of the "Field" exhibition.
