Arabic term

اعدمت

Arabic to English Art/Literary Poetry & Literature
Hi everyone,

I'm working on an Omani text where someone is interviewing an artist in the story.

I'm not sure what this verb اعدمت means in this context here. Any suggestions, please?

- كان لديكِ مشروع لوحات الريش، كنتِ ترسمين لوحات مُجردة، الريش والأجنحة، استعدتِ كل لوحاتكِ من المعارض واعدمتها، هكذا كتب النقاد منذ سنوات.

Thanks!

Executed/destroyed

I would choose executed because the writer chose to use a figurative expression which works perfectly if translated literally.
