Born in Cairo, she graduated from the Faculty of Art Education
and works as a professor in the Department of Art Works and Folklore,
specializing in printmaking.
The symbol for the artist is the ability to express her ideas of
childhood and the world of dreams in a symbolic image that depends in
the formulation of its elements on the superimposed transparent color
spaces of neutral tones and flying lines that give a suggestion of
movement and fluency between the elements of the artistic work in her
formations to show her childish elements and her innovative formations
in a symbolic form expressing visual images from the imagination of the
artist, so when she begins to express from her symbolic forms, she is
more sincere because she connects to her depths and her conscience. The
artist always has stories and tales that she read in the past when she was
young or told to her, and she always summons them to express them in a
simplified symbolic form that expresses the content of the idea of the
story or tale, and this is evident in how she formulates her elements and
heroes in each artwork and expresses them.
The artist imagines her artistic symbols and translates them
sensually using ink on cotton paper, taking inspiration from children's
expressions in her drawings for their boldness, details, and special
symbols. The artworks embody the artist's thoughts, emotions, and
feelings, and convey her ideas and point of view to the viewer.
