“My  Memories  of  You…”  Lost  in  Expression  ExhibiEon,  2008.  

 Through  my  work  I  try  to  explore  the  realm  of  feelings  and  emoEons.  What  these  feelings  stem  from,  how  our  memories  save  these  emoEons  and  what  we  see  when  we  look  back  at  them.  I  aim  to  highlight  and  illustrate  the  hidden  strength  of  the  woman,  her  feelings,  reacEons  and  struggles  in  order  to  cope  with  the  society  around  us.  These  un-­‐noEced  baPles  with  life  are  the  creators  of  much  repressed  emoEons,  feelings  and  memories  of  unfulfilled  dreams.    

 I  created  this  work  to  celebrate  the  voyage  of  the  soul  that  is  conEnuously  traveled  with  feelings,  thoughts  and  emoEons.  This  emancipaEon  of  the  soul  is  so  eminent  in  its  strength  yet  invisible.  I  wish  to  bring  to  light  many  aspects  that  make  the  Arab  woman  what  she  is  today.  Using  the  culture,  tradiEons  and  the  constant  surrounding  repression  there  is  a  great  deal  of  burdened  intensity  leT  untold.  Through  symbolically  coarse  and  rough  textures  I  allude  to  the  harshness  of  the  real  world  against  the  surrealisEc  dreams  I  have  imagined.  I  choose  to  recur  in  my  imagery  solid,  natural  colors  that  are  primal  and  strong.

I  am  driven  to  speak  out  about  these  hidden  issues  because  I  think  women  should  have  more  freedom,  acceptance,  free-­‐will  and  free  speech  to  discuss  the  troubles  in  their  lives,  and  to  make  the  decisions  they  see  fit.  The  EgypEan  culture  that  surrounds  me  is  my  main  source  of  inspiraEon.  The  City  and  especially  the  strong  women  I  have  had  the  pleasure  of  meeEng  conEnue  to  be  the  driving  force  for  my  way  reflecEon  and  creaEvity.  

 I  wish  to  convey  the  unwanted  and  unseen  feelings  of  sadness,  neglect,  anger,  frustraEon,  resentment  and  remorse.  The  confined  and  restricted  parts  of  the  woman’s  experience  are  the  vital  yet  unkind  aspects  that  I  wish  to  portray.  “My  Memories  of  You”,  alludes  to  my  experiences,  feelings  and  familiarity  with  the  woman’s  world.  The  influences  of  the  world  around  her;  on  herself  and  her  soul.  These  reacEons  and  emoEons  to  the  world,  don’t  last  that  long  and  are  usually  forgoPen,  yet  kept  somewhere  in  our  minds  as  memories.    

To  The  Moon  And  Back,  Print,  2006.
