About
Growing up, coffee was a forbidden thing for kids in my household. I was a highly energetic child and the last thing I needed was more stimulants, but my mother would reward good behavior by tipping a sip of her coffee into my mug of milk every now and then. I loved the taste and naturally craved more of the forbidden elixir. I studied human behavior as my master’s degree. Through a collaboration of science and art, I became interested in exploring the parallels of human fragility and emotions to the evolution of current times and the passing of time. Like human behavior, my work is largely based in the abstract but I am able to guide the canvas by adding different variables in the making. Muscat Oman
