This captivating work immerses the viewer in a world of dreamlike surrealism. In the foreground, a female figure emerges from the waves, her face serene and turned toward the sky, evoking a mystical connection with nature. Her skin seems to merge with the water, creating a sense of fluidity and harmony between human and ocean. The background features ethereal, eroded rock formations, reminiscent of natural sculptures. But can we not discern a man in these rocks? These imposing structures extend toward a twilight sky tinted with soft shades of mauve and yellow. This horizon brings a golden light that reflects on the water, accentuating the contrast between the immensity of the sea and the delicacy of the feminine details. A singular touch of this work lies in its bold use of texture. The elements resembling torn parchment, integrated into the female figure and the rocks, add a narrative and symbolic dimension. They suggest the passage of time or the fragility of existence, prompting the viewer to introspective reflection. The entire composition, imbued with mystery and poetry, invites meditation on the relationship between humanity and nature, the permanent and the ephemeral. It is a scene that challenges with its beauty and depth, leaving a lasting impression on the mind.

Presentation
About the artist
Born in 1959 in France, Farid SAÂDI began drawing at a very young age. His parents quickly noticed his interest in drawing. Then, barely entering adolescence, it was quite natural that he first turned to gouache and then to oil painting.
He loves to paint but calls himself a draftsman above all because he attaches paramount importance to the quality and accuracy of his line. This is why leaving nothing to chance, he studies perspective in order to deepen his work as it should. He also masters ancient oil painting techniques in order to obtain a refined result by using glazes, successive layers of paint. Working exclusively with only four pigments, both in oil and watercolor, namely yellow ocher, carmine lacquer, burnt umber and ultramarine blue, he thus obtains a whole range of shades that blend perfectly with each other.
Farid's style can be described as realistic, precise and very detailed. He remains deeply inspired by chiaroscuro, which predominates throughout his work.
Farid lives in France but regularly exhibits around the world (Japan, Belgium, France, USA...).
