Il-Bidwi

Il-Bidwi

Amid the golden furrows of the earth,
The farmer bends, shaping a world of worth.
With ancient toil, the land he reclaims,
A silent tribute to the sun’s warm flames

This painting adopts a semi-abstract style, fusing representational imagery with cubist elements. The composition is dominated by fragmented forms and interlocking patterns, reflecting the textured landscape and the farmer’s labour. The warm tones of yellow and brown evoke the richness of the soil, balanced by contrasting greens and reds that bring vibrancy to the scene. The layered brushstrokes and dynamic lines capture both the motion of ploughing and the timeless connection between man and land.
