Alqantara #5
By tim smith
Framing: Integrated original tray frame (ready to hang)
Alqantara 5 is painted over a recycled framed print on canvas, giving new life and meaning to a pre-existing artwork. The frame is an integral part of the piece, merging past and present in both material and message.
Named after a street in Gaza, Alqantara imagines a solitary minaret still standing amid destruction — a quiet yet powerful symbol of endurance and faith. The work speaks to survival, memory, and the traces of beauty that persist when all else has fallen away.
Created with sustainability and symbolism at its core, Alqantara 5 comes ready to hang, offering a moving reflection on resilience and renewal in times of devastation.

About the artist
Tim's work is driven by a fascination with the changing world, contemporary culture and the history of art. These are often mixed together in what he wants to be a spontaneous blend of images rich in cultural references, held together by passages of pure painting and lyrical colour in a "new representationalism"
