My name is Overflowing, and I was born on September 01, 2025, in Riyadh, in Majd's multipurpose room.

I was going to be a different painting originally, but my story was rewritten.

I originated from a hidden, unknown pain.

My insides are spilling over.

I don't have boundaries within myself.

I am full… there is no space to move.

I am disorganized.

I keep moving from one place to the next.

Water moved me.

Water awakened me.

I am not lost.

I came for a purpose that is currently unknown and undefined.

I got sidetracked with something else.

There was no plan for me to arrive.

I was sudden.

I am a reminder.

A reminder not to just stuff things down.

A reminder to just sit and breathe.

To slow down, even when things are not slowing down.

I require more grounding.

I need more space—to release, to make space.

When I am overflowed, the release may take time to unpack.

Hi there! Majd speaking 💜

I kind of lost the sketch for this painting. I am in between two options, but I don't remember either. I started the painting in Jeddah and then moved to Riyadh, where it sat in the dust until a day came when I desperately needed to release, and it was the only canvas that was ready. So it was just me and the paintbrush with colors. There was no plan or direction, a moment of release.

To rephrase: the first painting had a sketch, which I lost, but the second painting didn’t. (:
