Poésie (2021) exemplifies Mansour El Habre's departure from traditional painting conventions, where distinctions between form and space dissolve. Bold organic shapes and vibrant colours dance across the canvas, creating a sense of dynamic movement and tension. His forms—some flat, others sharp, and some seemingly suspended in space–– utilise several paradoxical perspectives. As the eye traverses the composition, it encounters a mesmerising array of chromatic entities that create a serene harmony out of the chaos. Each viewing unveils new layers of complexity, inviting an immersive exploration of the intricate relationship between art and reality.
