Tola Petroleum, 2019

The smell of luxury oud oil smells between Arab and Gulf societies. This smell is derived from trees infected with a disease. That smell is extracted from trees infected with a disease inside them. The finest types of oud oil are extracted from them. The relationship between oud oil and petroleum, we find that both of them need a long time to come out in the required form. The longer the oud oil is stored and obstructed, the better and finer it becomes. Petroleum also needs ages, long scores and high temperatures below the Earth's surface, so that slow transformations of organic materials occur. Therefore, people are proud of the natural oud oil that is presented to guests on occasions, and it is a kind of authentic Arab generosity. Also, it is a sign to the guest of good generosity and reception. This work was designed to highlight this authentic behavior by placing petroleum inside the Tola, and to achieve visual representation the Tola was repeated in the artwork; To achieve the concept of repetition and continuity.
