The Coordination of memory

Art Residency in Cité Internationale des Arts, Paris 2022 Invited by Al-mansouria Foundation During the three months residency in Cite Des Arts, I started an ongoing journey of diving into memory, as I realized my tendency to forget. With a splash of research, and a handful of documenting what will soon become memories of a place and time. This series began with a painting about my grandmother, the source of my interest in the subject. Then moved into portraits of few people I met here or friends. Soon enough I was getting bored of reality and oils, I moved to fiction and ink, etching an experimental story about memory, which begins with a question and ends with more questions and multiple images; what if memory was a creature?
