My approach and my artistic work are part of an exploration where colours, materials and calligraphy come together to express a sensitive memory of the world. Self-taught and passionate about art in all its forms, I draw my inspiration from my roots, my travels and the emotions aroused by landscapes and moments in life.

Blue is omnipresent in my work, evoking the sea, escape and an intimate link with Tunisia. Ochre, for its part, recalls the earth, the sand, the raw material that anchors my compositions in an almost tactile dimension. Between abstraction and figurative elements, my canvases become spaces for dialogue between the visible and the invisible, between matter and the spiritual.

Arabic calligraphy plays a central role in my work. More than an ornament, it is a universal language that crosses time and cultures. Through the Thuluth style and other scripts, I seek to create a balance between tradition and modernity, between aesthetics and the transmission of a message.

Exhibiting, sharing and passing on are essential pillars of my approach. Alongside my personal work, I run workshops and courses for children and adults, where I guide people in the discovery of their own artistic expression. My aim is to enable everyone to experience art as a space of freedom, expression and communion with oneself and others. So my painting is an invitation to travel: a sensory journey through colour and matter, an inner journey through the emotions they arouse, and a cultural journey through the traces and symbols I create on canvas.
