Effect of War, 2003 (Iraq War series)
This piece is about Iraq, and the woman at its center carries everything the invasion did to her people. I painted her thinking of the depleted uranium that poisoned so many Iraqis, and the children born after with birth defects. She is one face standing in for thousands.
Purple Fan Doors at the Mosque(Egyptian Landscape series)
Water Color on Paper
Anji's Landscape
Acrylic and ink in paper
This is a landscape of Egypt, painted in the spirit of Angie Affleton, whose work taught me how a place can be both itself and a feeling. I made it for someone I love, and it has lived in their home ever since. It carries the warmth of the country I come from.
Heartbreak in Iraq (Iraq War series)
This piece is about Iraq, and the woman at its center carries everything the invasion did to her people. I painted her thinking of the depleted uranium that poisoned so many Iraqis, and the children born after with birth defects. She is one face standing in for thousands.
Calling Palestine
Pen on Paper
Calling Palestine shows three figures together, each wearing a keffiyeh, their gazes turned upward. Above them, Palestine in Arabic letters. The patterns on each figure are intricate and full of meaning. This is about identity, solidarity, and the act of declaring who you are out loud.
Rose Marie
Acrylic on Canvas
Rose Marie is a portrait of a friend. The red expresses her intensity, and the smile shows her warmth. Together they capture who she is.
Small Smile
Pen on Paper
Small Smile shows someone giving just enough of a smile to hint at what is underneath. There is apprehension there, and uncertainty. We do not know exactly what this person is thinking, and that is the point.
Reclining Woman
SoldPen on Paper
Reclining Woman shows a woman at rest after a full day. The details of the bed and the rumpled blanket tell the story of how busy the day was. This is the quiet moment that comes after.
Oud Woman
SoldPen on Paper
Oud Woman shows a woman reclining with an oud, the two of them so at ease with each other that they have become one. The music is somewhere between them and inside them.
Musical Family
SoldPen on Paper
Musical Family shows a family intertwined in the act of playing music together. Their forms weave into each other the way families do, held together by the music they share.
Happy Couple
SoldPen on Paper
Happy Couple shows two people so intertwined that their bodies become one. The drawing does not separate them. They are body and soul the same thing.
Free Woman
SoldWatercolor and Pen on Paper
Free Woman shows two women: one still behind bars and one who has broken through them. The imprisonment could be political or it could be of the soul. One has found her way out. The other is still waiting.
Contempt
SoldPen on Paper
Contempt shows a woman looking directly at the viewer with suspicion and assessment. The lines around her eyes show a mind working quickly, taking stock of who is in front of her and deciding what to think.
Yasmine’s Blue Abstract
SoldAcrylic on Canvas
Yasmine’s Blue Abstract moves through swirling blues and hints of soft white in a composition that feels like water in motion. The layers have depth and quiet energy. It is a meditative piece that invites you to slow down and look.
Turquoise Glow
SoldAcrylic on Unprimed and Unstretched Canvas
Turquoise Glow centers on a luminous area of blue that draws you into the composition. Three dark rounded forms hang above it, suspended and still. The earthy browns and shimmering golds around the edges give the whole piece a sense of atmosphere and quiet drama.
Sandy’s Sunset
SoldAcrylic on Canvas
Sandy’s Sunset captures the warmth of a sunlit landscape through loose, expressive brushwork. The yellows and reds and greens suggest fruit or flowers without committing to either. It is a piece about the abundance and light of a good moment.
Ruby Red
SoldAcrylic on Unprimed and Unstretched Canvas
Ruby Red moves through reds and pinks and purples in swirling layers of color. Bold black lines and splatters cut through the composition and add contrast. It is an emotionally intense piece, open to whatever meaning the viewer brings to it.
Orange and Red Spheres
SoldAcrylic on Unprimed and Unstretched Canvas
Orange and Red Spheres fills the canvas with overlapping circles and rectangles outlined in bold black, the colors burning with reds and oranges. The blue and white accents offer some balance but the energy of the piece is in its intensity. There is no single place to rest the eye.
Lily’s Apple Stick
SoldAcrylic on Paper
Lily’s Apple Stick is anchored by a bold vertical form that cuts through the composition. Blues and purples on one side and warm oranges and yellows on the other. The contrast creates energy and suggests a kind of divide or journey across the canvas.
Lifting the Sun Vertically
Acrylic on Unprimed and Unstretched Canvas
Lifting the Sun Vertically shows people who have died in war, now underground, lifting the sun upward with their feet. It is a metaphor about being beneath the weight of grief and loss and still trying to push the light up. Even from below, the effort continues.
Lifting the Orange Sun
SoldAcrylic on Unprimed and Unstretched Canvas
Lifting the Orange Sun is about perseverance through depression and political unrest. The warm orange and gold rise against darker tones in a struggle between light and what is trying to keep it down. The concept of the sun here is about holding onto optimism when it is hardest to do so.
Blue and Brown
SoldAcrylic on Unprimed and Unstretched Canvas
Blue and Brown layers earthy browns with vibrant reds and deep purples, the colors moving and merging beneath crisp turquoise lines. The geometric and organic shapes exist together, shifting between structure and flow. It is a composition about what happens when things blend.
Yaffa Oranges are Part of Me
SoldAcrylic on Canvas
Yaffa Oranges are Part of Me is about the deep connection between Palestinian people and the Yaffa orange, a symbol of the land and its history. This girl’s braids wrap around the oranges to show that they are inseparable from who she is.
They Caught the Fish After the Killing
SoldAcrylic on Canvas
They Caught the Fish After the Killing is about what is left after a colonization or invasion, even after it ends. The damage done to a place does not leave when the invaders do. The fish is caught, yes, but there is too much sadness in the catching.
Sheikh Imam
SoldAcrylic on Canvas
Sheikh Imam is a portrait of the beloved Egyptian singer who spent his life singing about injustice under the Egyptian regimes. His eyes are covered in swirls because he was blind. But blindness did not stop him from seeing what was happening around him. He saw everything in his mind.
Pulled Apart Orange
SoldStretched canvas
Pulled Apart Orange was done during the Arab Spring, when there was so much hope for a new Egypt and a new Arab world. That hope was pulled apart and hijacked. The fragmented forms in the painting show what that felt like.
Pulled Apart Green
SoldAcrylic and Pen on Paper
Pulled Apart Green is also about the Arab Spring. The flowers are being pulled from their container by a force that is not visible in the painting. The mystery of that unseen hand is part of what the piece is about.
My Name is Palestine
SoldAcrylic on Canvas
My Name is Palestine shows a confident woman with wide eyes stating her name with defiance. It is a declaration. She is not asking permission.
