Her artworks express the magnificence of the cultural heritage of the Levant with a contemporary twist. Most of the time she merge reality with imagination and memory. She creates paintings that express the beauty of ancient societies which are in continuation of the present.
Her paintings are inspired by the ancient inscriptions and drawings discovered on old basalt volcanic stones in the Middle East. These drawings were created by the Safawi people that inhabited the desert in 1000B.C in Jordan. My artwork reflects the spirit of this primitive art while allowing and respecting its freedom to also become contemporary art in the 21st century. My artistic objective is to breathe life into forgotten ancient societies and their values, through create paintings in primitive tribel style with contemporary twist.
In the Middle East, women have always been the primary contributors in our communities toward healing our world, from early times to the present. Their inherent connection to the sanctity of life, and their ability to nurture and protect it ,as a female artist she aims to increase awareness about endanger ancient Safiatic inscriptions through arts.
