Al Hussein Public Park is anchored by the 550 meter open-air museum mural tracing Jordan’s story. At the Arab Army Plaza, my work honors the achievements and sacrifices of the Jordanian Arab Army and the nation’s peacekeeping forces, inviting a collective expression of gratitude, pride, and dialogue through art.

Diptych I “Arab Army & Global Peace”

The diptych translates the soldier’s code; loyalty, duty, respect, integrity, rigor, discipline, courage, and selfless service; into a geometric language.

Geometry serves as foundation; the triangle, as its most stable unit, embodies determination and willpower.

Through deliberate repetition, triangular uprights form parametric vertical columns, echoing the cadence of an army parade and the order of architectural colonnades.

From a single vantage point at the center of the plaza, unify the two murals into one uninterrupted field, creating a clear, instagramable point of engagement that encourages public interaction.

The first mural, vertical elements carry the core values of the Jordanian Arab Army, underscoring the quality and professionalism that define Jordan’s contributions to peace operations.

In the second, the columns index the countries where Jordanian peacekeepers have supported relief and stability, whether through medical teams or humanitarian aid.

A blue reflective glass backdrop that dissolves into the sky, and depict to the peacekeepers’ blue berets, acts as a luminous, reflective background that contrasts the metal vertical elements, mirroring the surrounding public space, and allowing for the vertical elements to appear to stand free of a wall. Up close, the reflective surface folds viewers into the murals, mirroring them and turning commemoration into a shared, participatory experience.

Graphically, the eight-meter murals resolve into their complete illustration from the central vantage point. Within that unified field, perspective is intentionally “bent”: elements farther from the viewer are modestly enlarged; a deliberate play with scale that prevents visual diminishment and affirms equal significance across values and geographies. This calibrated adjustment draws on Old Master strategies, such as Michelangelo’s David, with its intentionally over-scaled head and hands, is a classic example; where proportion is manipulated to read powerfully at a given distance and to heighten dramatic effect.

Here, counter-perspective sustains symbolic weight while amplifying the axial view; as viewers move off-axis, the constructed distortion reveals itself, prompting looking, movement, and active engagement.
