My work is emotionally inspired by my background as a Kurdish woman. With concrete as my ruling medium, I compose a body of work using basic materials to create my arts contemplating living in a tribal society, exportation, and being forced to be isolated from the modern world. The labour in making the artworks reflects upon the struggle Kurdish people, specifically women, face to preserve their cultural practices and rights.

There is a famous saying, “we have no friends other than mountains.” To portray the primitive condition of living in such colonized  society, I use primitive materials, including plasterer, mesh, charcoal, cardboard, ink, wood and gunny sac. Concrete is a cold and minimalist material that echoes the unsustained agriculture and represents the past and the current discourse dominated in Kurdistan territory. It is as modern as it is permeative.
