The word Al Hikmah [Wisdom] is written in contemporary style and fills a globe. The same word is written in a traditional style as a circular border. This represents the wisdom of accepting the old and the new - a coexistence of traditions and modern values. Not everything in life is black & white and it is those aspects of life that cause reflection. This mysticism is represented by hints of grey and gold in the painting.
