Hunna Art is proud to debut at Abu Dhabi Art 2024 within the Emerge sector, where galleries present artworks under US $3,000, inviting new collectors to engage with the vanguard of contemporary art. Our curated selection features three women artists whose practices resonate with nuanced explorations of culture, identity, and mythology.
Saudi artist Joud Fahmy’s practice centers on exploring women's voices and expressions through mixed-media sculptures, predominantly using textiles. By translating concepts such as family dynamics and gender roles into tangible works, she initiates dialogues between the traditional and the modern. Her artwork transcends societal barriers, serving as a catalyst for shifting meaning and reshaping culture.
Mashael Alsaie, a Bahraini multimedia artist, weaves together themes of ecofeminism and science fiction, with her current body of work drawing from Bahraini mythologies. Through text, image, and glass, she reinterprets collective consciousness, reflecting on the myth of the Adhari Spring in an interplay between history and the speculative.
Zayn Qahtani’s work hovers at the threshold between the seen and the felt. Inspired by animism and the alchemical transformation of materials, she creates with pigments drawn from nature, recycled bioplastics, and organic matter. Her artistic practice enlivens inanimate objects, rendering them potent vessels of mythology, emotion, and personal history.
Hunna Art’s participation in Abu Dhabi Art 2024 reflects our commitment to nurturing a new generation of artists from the Arabian Peninsula, offering collectors a exigent yet accessible entry point into contemporary art.
