About me
A Palestinian artist and writer living in Jerusalem. She holds a doctorate in contemporary Palestinian art. Her artworks come in the form of digital art, in addition to her work in video art and installation.
The methods and themes of her artworks vary from abstraction, Sufism, and ornament, in addition to her artworks on the reality of Palestinian life under occupation.
Maliha often embarks on her digital artworks from a philosophy and a vision that sees the subject and image as a workable substance that can take endless forms.
She has literary publications, as well as publications and articles in the visual arts, including her book "Graffiti of the Egyptian Revolution," issued in 2012, and "The manifestations of the Letter: The Aesthetics of the Text in Contemporary Palestinian Art," issued in 2014.
