breaking news

I am pleased to announce that my work has been been selected to be part of The Painting Center’s Retrieval of the Beautiful exhibition. The exhibition will feature 84 artists. The dates for the exhibition are June 21 – July 16, 2016. The Opening Reception is Thursday, June 23 from 6 to 8 pm.

This highly competitive opportunity gives me the chance to represent my art in Manhattan for the first time. More information on the particular piece which has been framed and shipped lately and just been delivered, soon to be published.

I would like to grab every platform to express how grateful I am for my academic year long Artist Residency offered by the Head of Art Department at University of Hawaii at Manoa, wonderful artist and person Gaye Chan and to Reem Bassous professor and truly inspiring, amazing artist who brought my attention to the call of this show.

Having my studio at UH Manoa has been a blessing in so many senses, I hope I have been able to give some of it back to the community.

I am unbelievably happy I can announce my Artist Residency at University of Hawaii at Manoa being extended until the very end of May which turns my stay here into a roughly 8 month-long paradise in a professional sense. 🙂

This means I can use this fabulous opportunity to continue my own research as an artist, use my studio (#204, Art Building), get to know these talented Honolulu-based artists (whose artistic work and activity as professors, lecturers are both deeply inspiring) and widen my pedagogical experiences by having classes over my studio.

It would all not be possible without the help and support of the Art Department, primarily conceptual artist and head of the department Gaye Chan! I would like to thank also the faculty for being so open, cooperative and supportive!

My studio occupancy started on Oct 5 2015 and, according to the latest notification I received, lasts until May 31, 2016.
