About this artwork
This work was exhibited at the Beirut Art Fair in 2016. Inspired by a tragedy that caused several deaths in a stampede, this image struck me because the accumulation of bodies piled one on top of the other gave the impression that they were trapped in mud.

France
Adel Bentounsi, a visual artist born in Annaba, Algeria, trained at the Fine Arts academies of Annaba and Dunkirk. He employs contemporary techniques, employing metaphors, collecting fragments, assemblages, and personal reconstruction in drawing, installation, and other media. His style explores the intuitive encounter between chance, nature, tradition, and politics. Through his works, he conveys a profound existential quest, a resistance to the impacts he experiences, and invites us to reflect on the unsuspected beauty of the modern world.
