"PAILLETTE" By Toni Al Maalouf

Medium: Acrylic on Canvas
Dimensions: 50x50 cm 

Description: Paillette captures the tension between radiance and obscurity, where joy flickers beneath a veil of darkness. The painting features a vibrant, multicolored background—suggesting celebration, light, and movement—partially concealed beneath sweeping layers of deep, moody tones. Like sequins glimpsed through sheer fabric, bursts of pink, gold, turquoise, and violet shimmer subtly through charcoal and indigo overlays, creating a dynamic interplay of concealment and revelation. The piece evokes a sense of memory, resilience, or beauty surviving under weight. Abstract and emotive, Paillette invites viewers to look closer, to search for what still shines beneath the surface.
