Abstract Shapes

Abstract Shapes by Somaya Soliman combines strong geometric forms with a freely marked surface. Rectangular fields and diagonal bands divide the composition, while a large green circle and a smaller pale circle interrupt their straight edges. Each form remains clear within a broad, saturated palette.

Orange and red occupy a substantial central area, balanced by yellow, pink, violet, green, and deep blue. The different color fields meet along distinct boundaries, giving the painting a stable underlying structure. The circles provide rounded accents that draw attention across the larger planes.

Small splashes and speckled marks travel over the geometric divisions. These details soften the separation between the fields, allowing color to connect across their edges. The result is a surface that feels active and visibly painted while retaining its straightforward organization.

The work invites attention to the relationship between shape and gesture. Clear geometry provides order, and the scattered marks introduce variation within that order. Abstract Shapes gives familiar forms a lively presence through contrasting scale, bright color, and an energetic pattern of surface detail.
