I am an emerging artist, working in printmaking and installation. My work is firmly grounded in my background as an Egyptian-Australian, who, growing up in Guildford, NSW, witnessed Western Sydney's shifting cultural relations and the continuous transformation of its urban landscape. This experience has continuously informed work that explores connection to place through material culture and values expressions of agency within everyday life. ​My work explores these ideas through a language of abstraction and materiality.

​

I completed an MFA at the National Art School, Sydney in 2021, with the support of the Jenour Foundation Fine Arts MFA Scholarship and the Mark Henry Cain Memorial Travel Scholarship. I have participated in residencies in Australia and internationally, including Cill Rialaig, Ireland, and the Sydney Catholic Schools Arts Team. I am currently a member of Sydney Printmakers and a tenant of the Brand X/City of Sydney Creative Studios.
