Art as a way of life

Original works of art add a personal impression to your home with a unique feeling that lasts forever.

​

Over the past ten years, I have developed a  characteristic style and focused on developing my artistic experience through the use of varied mediums and diverse instruments with the challenge always being the ability to produce pieces of art that I am satisfied with on par with the standards of my peer contemporary artists,  extensively searching and introducing novel materials in a continued effort for all that is new which has galvanized me to persevere in the face of challenges in my artistic journey.

 

The orient is with me in spirit and is my permanent passion and the source of my inspiration for many of my works although it is noticeable the recurring theme of utensils such as eastern cloths, ceramics, and pottery that dominate my work.

 

 Whilst gradually Figures have largely disappeared from my artwork reflecting the ephemeral nature of our lives as we too shall perish leaving behind our work and collections to speak on behalf of us and our history.

 

Heading in the direction of greater abstraction in an effort to capture holistically what cannot be expressed in that which is well defined.

 

The search is always ongoing… to study …and observe… then try and experiment… and to continue to challenge…this is both my emblazoned passion as well as a source of calm and happiness.

 

My first art exhibition was held jointly with three other Kuwaiti women artists in 1993 after which my journey as an artist has continued on to the present.

​

currently, I work at my own personal studio where I sometimes hold some workshops every once in a while, it is also where I am visited by some of those who wish to acquire my artworks.
