Description
Times Like These is part of a pictorial exploration centered on the human figure and its relationship to others. The work presents a couple, structured by a layering of planes: the woman in the foreground, emphasized by the composition, and the man in the background, inscribed in a silent proximity. This spatial arrangement suggests a relationship built on balance, support, and restraint, without explicit narrative.
True to a visual style nourished by a dual Franco-Moroccan culture, the artist develops a formal vocabulary where bodies are constructed from atypical, deliberately convoluted, and inexpressive forms. The absence of facial features diverts attention from the individual, emphasizing instead the connection, posture, and tension between volumes. The figures thus become archetypes, open to interpretation.
The palette, composed of pastel colors softened by stronger contrasts, creates an apparent gentleness that interacts with the graphic strength of the outlines. This chromatic and formal duality is characteristic of a body of work where color, often vibrant, is here restrained, almost serene, reinforcing the sensation of suspended time.
Through the recurring representation of the couple, the artist explores the dynamics of proximity, otherness, and emotional cohabitation. The painting does not depict a scene, but rather offers a sensitive space where each viewer is invited to project their own experience of human relationships.
Through this couple, the work evokes moments in life where closeness, support, and shared silence take on more meaning than words. It invites the viewer to project their own story, to feel the beauty of these suspended, simple, and essential moments.
Presentation
Sarah Elqa is a self-taught Franco-Moroccan contemporary artist, born in Morocco. Painting has accompanied her since childhood as an instinctive language, shaped by a deep relationship with color, emotion, and gesture.
Before fully dedicating herself to her pictorial work, she worked as a fashion designer for over ten years in Morocco and internationally. This experience has had a lasting influence on her artistic approach, refining her sense of texture, rhythm, and composition. Having permanently settled in France several years ago, her second country, she opened her studio and began commercializing her work, marking a new phase in her artistic journey.
A descendant of the Fauvist painter Maurice de Vlaminck, Sarah Elqa develops a contemporary, free, and expressive pictorial language. Her work moves between abstraction and figuration, engaging in a constant dialogue between gestural energy and human presence.
Her abstract style is characterized by strong chromatic intensity, a living materiality, and spontaneous movement, where color becomes a fully expressive emotional language. Forms emerge, overlap, or dissolve, leaving space for intuition and freedom of gesture.
Alongside this, figurative painting holds an essential place in her work. She frequently depicts characters, silhouettes, faces, bodies in motion, carrying emotions, identities, and intimate narratives. These figures, often expressive and powerful, embody the human condition, femininity, inner strength, and cultural diversity. Sometimes suggested, sometimes fully asserted, they are always animated by the vibration of color and matter.
Her work has been presented at several international contemporary art fairs, notably in the United States, New York and Miami, as well as in Asia, including South Korea and Taiwan. Her artworks are part of prestigious private collections, including those of international figures from the film industry.
Deeply committed to charitable causes, Sarah Elqa actively supports various humanitarian and social initiatives by regularly donating her artworks to auctions and fundraising events. This commitment is an integral part of her artistic practice, which she envisions as a space for transmission, sharing, and meaning.
Through an instinctive and deeply inhabited painting, Sarah Elqa asserts a singular artistic signature, at the crossroads of cultures, where abstraction and figuration meet to celebrate emotion, freedom, and the living.
