Alymamah Rashed at Tabari Artspace
Kuwaiti surrealist painter Alymamah Rashed is fast becoming one of the gulf’s most regarded artistic talents, whose surrealist paintings harness self-portraiture to investigate the complexities of identity in the post-internet generation. Tabari Artspace’s inaugural exhibition of the artist, Rashed draws from regional folklore and the rapid social shifts that she has witnessed, such as the modernisation and industrialisation of the Gulf region, to create eclectic works of art that are both playful yet deep.
Interestingly, Rashed also produces poetry which will be displayed in unison with her paintings throughout the exhibition, which is one you most certainly don’t want to miss.
