Taha Abdulaal was inspired in his artworks by the aesthetics of the heritage by employing artistic and decorative forms to create an oriental image. Its human forms are closer to the common Sumerian faces, in the ancient Iraqi art, where they appear to be stagnant and still with wide contemplative eyes, which illustrates the Sumerian features. In his figurative works, the artist employed imagination, heritage, and popular symbols, reproducing them in a contemporary expressive manner to reveal an astounding aesthetic visual.
