ART: MARWA KHAMIS
Three Complementary Compositions, 2021, gouache on paper, 25 x 35 cm each
Marwa Khamis is an emerging Egyptian painter and art teacher. She thinks that art isn’t just an image, but an idea summed up by design. In addition, the main theme of her work is freedom and the problems women go through nowadays. She has found abstraction, surrealism and cubism to be useful in the rearranging of received ideas. She uses gouache for its versatility: it can mimic the look and feel of acrylic, watercolor and even oil paint. Marwa participated in 13 international exhibitions (India, France, Spain, UK), three national exhibitions and two workshops. She won the Michelangelo Award at the Rainbow Art World Association international art exhibition. Also, her artworks were published internationally in magazines from Belgium, Hong Kong, and the UK.
