Jawad Al Malhi
My work takes its starting point from the experience of ‘otherness’ that I have experienced both at home and abroad, as a Palestinian. Over the course of my career my work has explored spaces of marginality through painting, mixed media and site specific work. My work is often inspired by the daily life of people who live in marginalised communities, particularly the way in which experience contours their bodily forms and the individual’s relationship with space and the built environment. My interest in humanist issues informs my visual language as my research focuses on ways in which art works can translate across cultural and geographical boundaries.
