About this artwork
This life-size donkey has motifs from all sides of the Mediterranean Sea. There is Arabian from the eastern side, Byzantine from the north east, medieval Sicilian which is central in the sea, in its ears I painted local Maltese landscapes, it's tail carries an ancient Egyptian design and Spanish-Moorish florals from the West. All these I traced beforehand and re-traced the designs onto the figure before painting it. This work took almost two and…
a half months to complete. The donkey is peaceful and promotes peace and happiness all around the Mediterranean basin.

His creativity helped him start life anew. With his works he explores a vast spectrum of possibilities and uses his creativity to search new artistic boundaries. His approach ranges from abstract expressionism to realism. His work often blends complex, entangled forms and vibrant colour harmonies to discover order within chaos.

He has held 20 solo exhibitions since 1994. Butterfly, his latest solo was held in December 2025.
