MKM Gallery
presents a large oil painting by Nouri Almashhour showing a dreamlike garden reminiscent of a luscious tapestry or carpet. Its warm colours and “flat surface” architecture invoke a Middle Eastern flair which is subtly counteracted by the surreal bourgeois objects and people floating through its scene.

Nouri Almashhour (* 1994 in Derezzor, Syria) is a paintor who graduated from class of Valérie Favre at the UdK in the summer 2023. He studied at Damascus University until 2015, and participated in various group exhibitions, such as Galerie Grisebach, Berlin, Sa-Kura Gallery, Negye Japan, ZK/U Berlin.

This is the first solo presentation of Almashhour’s work. The artist lives and works in Berlin.
