The Arab world as pieces of meat, 2016
mural acrylic painting, 200cm x 121cm

(…)In addition, in The Arab World as pieces of meat, a fresco painted directly on the walls of Le Cube, the Arab world is represented by the figure of a bullock ready to be dissected. Here, Soukaina Joual emphasizes at once a deadly future to which these countries seem to be destined, and the possibilities that could emerge from this association. Even though the passivity of the animal seems to have deprived it of its strength, it remains no less than a figure bearing a multitude of potentialities.
