I am a self-taught artist-painter, an architect and urban planner, now devoted entirely to my art. My approach as an artistic painter is existential and philosophical in which it questions my relationship to the world and to nature. A journey where I explore this enigmatic and inner universe that is the SELF, and the outer, wild and wonderful world of Mother Earth.

French-Palestinian, I grew up in several mediterranean countries as I had to travel a lot. I studied architecture-engineering and later continued higher studies in France, obtaining my masters degree in urban planning and then worked as an architect /urban planner for about 9 years. It was when I went to Africa and lived in Madagascar for a few years that I felt a deep desire to express myself more freely through artistic painting.
