“The Two Sisters, Sannia and Bahia”: There was a wood work, “Three Women”, that the artist had sculpted in 1981 and was shown in his first personal exhibition in the same year. After that, the artist Khaleel Al-Ward transformed this sculpture into two separate sculptures, the first with the name “The Two Sisters, Sannia and Bahia” and the second under the name “Al-Mutkattifa/Women with Crossed Arms” and both of them were displayed in an exhibition that was set up by the Ministry of Information in honor of the artist after his death in 1984
