Major Solo Exhibition “Return to the Garden of Eden” at the Iraqi Cultural Center in Washington DC- USA.
 March 7th 2014.

DC supposed to have wonderful weather in March, yet, there was some snow at the opening of Qais Al-Sindy Exhibit in Connecticut Avenue in Washington, where the artist showed 40 new paintings in which he inspires nostalgia for a lost world he yearns for. Qais Al-Sindy is making reference to a Mesopotamian King in his art work, which was placed in a divine garden, the Garden of Eden, to guard the tree of life. Since old books claim the Garden of Eden was situated at the head of the Arabian Gulf, where the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers run into the sea, the artist depicted the garden in his paintings in Iraq, where he originally comes from.
