ART & DESIGN
As an artist and designer, I bring together the precision of structured design with the fluidity
of organic expression. My work spans diverse fields of visual communication, developing a
practice that blends technical expertise with creative exploration to deliver impactful results.
As a graphic designer, I focus on crafting visually compelling designs that communicate
clear and engaging messages. From branding and advertising to interactive exhibits and
public art, I aim to create meaningful visual experiences that enhance both aesthetics and
functionality. Each project reflects a commitment to thoughtful design, where creativity and
purpose converge.
BIOGRAPHY
In my youth, I always possessed an insatiable need to draw and sketch. I soon became
immersed in digital art, initially captivated by video game design; I learned 3D modeling and
rendering using 3D Studio Max. Concurrently, the early days of the internet sparked my
interest in web coding, particularly HTML. As I explored these new digital tools, I began
creating my own graphics, dissatisfied with the premade options available online. This
period of experimentation ignited my passion for design.
I explore various facets of graphic design, from print to digital media, seeking new
boundaries of creativity. My work extends into typographic collages, or experimental
typography, a blend of text with found objects and diverse materials. These pieces create
layered, multidimensional compositions that challenge traditional design conventions.
A journey of continuous growth and discovery, my approach to design is one that leads to
work that is both conceptually profound and visually compelling. I remain committed to
pushing the boundaries of my craft, always seeking new ways to communicate and connect
through art and design.
ARTIST STATEMENT
My work is a deliberate exploration of the intersection between traditional craftsmanship and
digital innovation. As an artist, designer, and cultural observer, I navigate the complexities of
identity, time, and perception, employing a diverse range of media—acrylic paint, graphite,
paper, digital collage, and found objects—to weave narratives that transcend the ordinary.
Rooted in a deep appreciation for the geometric precision of mathematics and the fluidity of
scientific principles, my art often embodies a visual tension between chaos and order. This
interplay is not merely aesthetic but philosophical, reflecting the dualities I perceive in life:
the structured and the spontaneous, the tangible and the abstract, the old world and the
new.
Influenced by my cultural heritage and the transformative journey of migrating from Sudan
to the United States, my work serves as a dialogue between past and present, personal and
collective histories. I strive to break down the barriers between the seen and the unseen,
the known and the unknown. Found objects—imbued with history and meaning—are
integral to my typographic collages, grounding my work in the physical world while
simultaneously inviting viewers to consider the intangible aspects of existence. My
approach to experimental typography, inspired by early influences from my time at Virginia
Commonwealth University, further blurs the lines between text and image, structure and
freedom.
