It was through drawing that I shouted out my revolutions, traced my vital errors, and even tattooed my euphorias. They were inside boxes that accumulated to form a tower of babel over time. They were made of pens, pencils, chalk, watercolors; sometimes with lipstick. As they grew they changed, with new color and shapes; sometimes more aggressive, sometimes more muted. A common aspect that I have always visualized in my work, since I was a child, was that of \"imprisoning\" its protagonists\", with chains, with ropes, with circles that prevented them, from the right to \"come and go\". Over time I realized that this was always how I felt, as a daughter of Arab emigrants, as a professional who felt the clear pressure in her work to be a woman and finally as a wife and mother.”
