In this painting, Shia Muslims pray with solemnity and beauty, their devotion to God resonating with a musical and theatrical flair. On the right side of the canvas, an electric guitar, inspired by and reminiscent of Queen's Brian May, takes the stage. Just as Freddie Mercury and his band bridged opera and rock, here prayers themselves rock while embodying the sacred—inviting viewers to contemplate the harmonious convergence of faith and music.

Style, Themes, Techniques

I have a saying: if God (or the gods, depending on faith) are our masters, we humans should never be their slaves. Rock bands have their fans, but no slaves. Yet, some fans exhibit a religious devotion to their rock stars...

"Adulations Rock!" offers an interesting perspective on devotion and fandom, blending religious themes with the fervor of rock music enthusiasts.
