“Since I started painting, my work has always been a reflection of my personal journey - a visual diary shaped by lived experience and emotion. From the intimate realities of motherhood to themes of women's empowerment and urgent social questions, each series becomes a chapter of my life translated into image. My practice is rooted in my existence as a woman, a mother, and an artist. It invites the viewer into an emotional terrain where imagination, memory, dreams, symbolism, and poetry intertwine - transforming the seemingly ordinary into surreal atmospheres charged with sensitivity, tension, and light.Together, my works form a continuous investigation: how living ultimately becomes memory, and how even the most invisible traces - whether of time, love, or experience - always remain, in different forms, within us." - Rita Chehab
