about me.
In my art, I embrace the vibrant, unfiltered lens through which children see the world. Painting reconnects me with my inner child, preserving wonder and spontaneity. My paintings are autobiographical, capturing moments of joy and serenity in the lively chaos that surrounds my world, often finding me through my children. They narrate stories of 'Sukoon'—Arabic for tranquility—highlighting the wholesome connections in childhood.
Through bold textures, I aim to capture the sense of motion and fluidity. The first layer I put on canvas is using the color which allows me to connect with my emotion at that moment. My process often includes writing words from the songs or mantras playing in my head or in the ambience, interweaving words with imagery to tell a personal story.
My works stand as testaments to the profound belief that to truly see, one must feel, and to truly express, one must connect authentically. I invite the viewer to pause, reflect, and perhaps find their own inner child amidst the chaos of life.
