      "Born in Saudi Arabia to Egyptian parents, I studied architectural engineering at Assiut University in Egypt and worked for years as an interior designer and architect in Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Following a lifelong dream to be an artist, I moved to Canada and studied Fine Arts at Brandon University, graduating in 2023 with a Gold Medal — my major is drawing.",
      "Living between Egypt and Saudi Arabia shaped my eye: the old southern-Saudi folk art of Al-Qatt Al-Asiri that decorates historic buildings, alongside ancient Egyptian and Islamic art. I fold symbols and details from those worlds into every piece, working in clay, charcoal, acrylic and mixed media.",
      "I seek to combine interior design with fine art — reviving Islamic and ancient Egyptian art in a modern way, and bringing the aesthetics of traditional Arab art to the Western world. Every piece, painted or thrown, leaves my hands one of one."
