Artwork Description

A quiet abstract exploration of memory and distance. Layers of muted colour create a hazy, almost weathered atmosphere, while fragmented marks of blue, violet and orange emerge like traces of a place or moment that can no longer be fully recalled. The work sits somewhere between landscape, architecture and memory familiar, but unresolved

Artist Bio

I am a Brisbane-based multidisciplinary creative with a background in journalism. Before moving to Australia, I worked for several years as a reporter in the Middle East, telling people’s stories and advocating for their rights. Although my professional journey has since taken me across different industries, the desire to explore human experiences and tell meaningful stories remains central to who I am.

Today, I continue that storytelling through abstract art. I paint to understand myself, to heal, and to see the world from different perspectives.

My practice is an ongoing experiment with colour, texture, instinct, and emotion. I am drawn to abstraction because it gives me the freedom to explore beyond ideas of right and wrong, beauty and imperfection. I enjoy trying unfamiliar techniques, changing direction, making mistakes, and allowing each piece to become what it needs to be.

For me, art is a process of recovery, self-discovery, and making sense of the world around me—one experiment at a time.
