How does living in the Middle East influence your work?
As an artist, how important is it for you to create pieces that have a voice and meaning behind them?
Where do you look for inspiration?
What has the response been like to your digital collages, particularly here in the Middle East?
It’s been very positive so far. I haven’t received any negative feedback (at least not to my face). People seem very taken in by digital and analogue collages that offer structure and concepts within their abstraction.
How would you say the Middle Eastern art scene has changed over the last few years?
I haven’t been very active in the art scene for long, so I don’t know how qualified I am to give an overview of the past few years. What I can say is I do feel an influx of young artists cropping up in the Middle East, breaking away from traditional art forms and tackling societal and cultural issues through contemporary art. I suspect this could have always been the case, I just wasn’t aware because art just wasn’t as widely accessible or circulated as it is now.
