MANAMA. “The Man” is a retrospective on Jaffar Al Oraibi’s artistic and conceptual development.

It is an investigation on the struggles, dilemma’s and the constant mind battle of human
beings and is a specific exploration on the artists’ perception on these issues. His works resemble individual brainstorms that try to branch out the many notions Al Oraibi has on topics such as love, sexual desires and fear. “The Man” is a series of different
interpretations and perceptions Al Oraibi has unfolded throughout his artistic process and is a presentation of the many notions and answers he has encountered through his journey.

Paintings were chosen based on their approaches to the strong subject matters Al Oraibi has been investigating and were carefully curated to ensure the coherency of his research findings.
