Description
“Glimmers of the Past” (2025) is a mixed-media artwork by Alia, combining acrylic on canvas and velvet (120×70 cm). This elegant composition celebrates the enduring allure of traditional jewelry, symbols of heritage, grace, and identity.
Each piece, from the intricate necklace to the earrings and bangles, is rendered with exceptional precision, capturing the glow and texture of gold against the richness of black velvet. The triptych arrangement evokes the intimacy of a personal treasure chest, where each ornament carries whispers of memory, ceremony, and legacy.
Through her refined use of light and color, Alia transforms these heirlooms into poetic reflections of culture and emotion. “Glimmers of the Past” stands as a heartfelt homage to the artistry and spirit embedded in every cherished adornment, a visual bridge between past and present.
