“These pieces represent different elements of the human experience.”
Published in Open Arts Forum on .
I’m a multidisciplinary Egyptian artist creating work that explores identity, emotion, and the complexity of the human experience. As a Coptic Egyptian and immigrant, I often pull from personal and cultural memory, using art to express what’s hard to say in words. I work mostly with acrylic paint, but I’m always experimenting with different mediums and materials.
My art blends softness and strength. Whether I’m working with color, texture, or form, my goal is to create something that makes people pause. Something that feels honest. I want my work to make others feel seen, challenged, or comforted, even in unexpected ways.
My work is displayed at the NC State University Student Union and has been featured in Windhover Magazine. I’ve also shared my art through local shows, pop-ups, and print sales, and I’m always excited to keep growing and connecting with others through creative spaces.
