This painting series by Tathi Premchand reflects the Iraq war, the fall of Saddam Hussein and the history of the 9/11 World Trade Center attack. Created between 2005 and 2020, the artwork connects terrorism, war and global political power. The broken tower forms symbolize the destruction of the World Trade Center and human tragedy. The airplane image recalls the 9/11 attack that changed world history and began a new war era. Dark red lines and shadow figures represent violence, fear and military control after the attack. The Taj Mahal above appears like a silent monument watching the fall of kingdoms and humanity. Saddam Hussein’s downfall and execution became symbols of political collapse during the Iraq conflict. Through black, white and deep red colors, the artist shows how war leaves pain, silence and destruction across the world.
