In my work I portray the people, architecture, plants, animals and patterns that are so unique and characteristic of the country of Yemen. I am fascinated by forms and patterns that express Yemeni culture in the decorative forms and patterns on fabrics, objects and architecture. Once I was travelling with two midwives in a remote area in Yemen. They wanted to check up on a Bedouin woman who had experienced some difficulty in giving birth to her child. When we drove up to the Bedouin camp I was struck by the strength and stoic posture of the women that came out to meet us. At the same time there was a lot of curiosity in the way they looked at me, a ‘stranger’ from the West. In this painting I try to capture some of that strength, dignity and captivating presence of that moment in time.

In my work I paint the designs and prints combined with portraits of people, plant,animals and architecture that uniquely define places in the world and in particular Yemen, where I grew up. I am fascinated by the diversity expressed in patterns and forms both in living creatures and the artistic expressions derived from them. I paint those things that could end up disappearing as they are under threat of globalization, environmental degradation and conflict.
