Art Objects

Art in Everyday Life

Alongside her canvases and drawings, Nagwan brings her visual language to everyday objects: hand-painted bags, trays, coasters, serving plates and wearable pieces. Each piece is treated as a small canvas, carrying the same women, flowers, hamsa motifs and folk symbols that appear in her paintings.
