Fadwa Al Qasem

Fadwa Al Qasem is a Palestinian-Canadian mixed media artist, bilingual author and advocate for hope in the shadows. Fadwa has spent her life trying to answer the same questions: where do I belong? What does it mean to be Palestinian? What does it mean to be a woman in this world? Her work spans painting, fiber art, poetry, performance and literature; always circling these questions, never quite done with them. She writes in Arabic and English and has lived in many countries, currently Spain. The page has always been her home.

I hold a BA in English Literature and Art Therapy Certificates; both of which live quietly in everything I make.
