INTRODUCTION

Born and based in Dubai, Zeinab Al Hashemi is a conceptual artist and designer specializing in site-specific installation, and spatial art. Her process forges a connection between an honored tradition and a distinguished contemporary pieces relying on technical and creative knowledge collected through experience. Alhashemi executes visionary art through raw and overlooked materials in connection between the patterns in nature and the urban life. Alhashemi interactive art reflects her personal journey to explore the world around her, and the universal symbols that shapes our reality.

Alhashemi supports the importance of public art, and is always keen to engage the public with her work, she believes that as a growing art and culture scene, it is her responsibility as an artist to draw awareness not only on art and design, but how it can inspire the society. By deconstructing and reconstructing her chosen medium she gives viewers a different perspective on the landscape they are situated in.

Another part of her research revolves around the past and history of her environment, documenting the process of change through her perception and the state from “What is’ to “What could be”, only this time it’s not the history it holds, but also the story she tells.
