In Uprising, Kheder presents four figures caught in the fervent momentum of rebellion, rendered with raw immediacy through the alla prima technique. Thick, impasto brushwork carves their presence into the canvas, each stroke a visceral echo of unrest and defiance. The figures are not merely bodies in motion—they are ideologies in collision, forming a tense and unified front against an unseen oppressor.
The painting refuses neat narrative; instead, it evokes the conceptual core of anarchism—resistance without hierarchy, a rupture of imposed order. Faces blur into abstraction, their identities subsumed by collective struggle. The background dissolves into a vortex of textured color, suggesting the collapse of structure and the birth of something untamed.
Kheder’s use of impasto amplifies the physicality of the scene—paint becomes flesh, movement, and rupture. It’s a painting that doesn’t depict an uprising so much as embody it, with every mark on the canvas a declaration of defiance. Bold and uncompromising, Uprising is both a visual assault and a philosophical provocation.

To create this piece of art the artist used:
Hog Bristle brushes; Hog hair bristle has a unique remarkable brushstroke, stiff hog hair brushes (referred to as bristle brushes) enable the artist to adjust the color gradient on canvas, i.e., adding more pressure on the hog's hair bristle would blend two overlaying tones on the canvas. Also, the Hog's hair brush's stiffness enables the artist to work with high-consistency oil paint, if the artist intends to create an oil painting with a remarkable texture.
 
For solvents, the artist used turpentine, which increases the fluidity of oil paints but makes the binder oil dry faster, also used clove oil as a solvent to delay the dryness of the binder, as it delays the oxidation process.
 
As a binder, the artist used Linseed oil, which dries to form a strong flexible film, and also Safflower oil(which takes more time to dry).
Artists mixed high-quality pigments with both Binder(linseed oil) and Solvent(turpentine) to create the desired consistency and finish.
 
Impasto technique; Impasto is a technique used in painting, where paint is laid on canvas thickly, usually thick enough that the brush or painting-knife strokes are visible, when dry, impasto provides texture.
Type of canvas: Linen fabrics.
