The Oud Players
Set of 4

The Oud Players consist of 4 paintings from Alshedoukhy’s Men Collection. In each of the paintings, the men are depicted with similar appearances, however, they differ greatly in the details, showing the connection we all share in spite of our differences. We all may do similar things in life, but we each put our own mark on it, making it cohesive and meaningful, a beauty in art and music for all to enjoy.

Ahlam Alshedoukhy is a Canadian board-certified pathologist, and head of department of pathology at Al Faisal University’s College of Medicine. While working on her specialization, she started painting and began her journey through science to art – to find the place where the two finally meet. Her style is an unexpected combination of realism and abstract, with a minimalistic approach to both. Inspired by her surroundings, the exploration of the individual versus the collective identity is a main focus of her art. She also touches upon many issues such as gender balance and the complex man/woman relationship in Saudi Arabia. She believes in art with a message, with the goal of creating pieces that speak to the audience.
