The collection includes White Mane Lady, The Elegant Horse, The Golden Warrior, Moonlit Horse, Pastel Horse Reverie, Dream Horse, Azure Horse Abstract, and Blue Horse Abstract. Across these paintings, natural and recognisable forms gradually give way to heightened palettes, atmospheric light, and freer interpretations of the equine figure.
Light and colour become central to the collection’s progression. Pale manes, golden tones, moonlit contrasts, soft pastels, and deep blues alter the character of each horse and the space surrounding it. Rather than serving only as descriptive elements, colour and light convey qualities of elegance, strength, mystery, and imagination.
Viewed together, Horses of Light and Colour reveals the expressive versatility of the horse within Alvi’s work. From the individual presence of the more recognisable portraits to the transformed forms of Azure Horse Abstract and Blue Horse Abstract, the collection traces a journey from observation towards reverie and abstraction.
