Gallery Talk: Alia Bensliman

Event: fb://event/1766116197213710
Join the artist Alia Bensliman as she discusses her artwork on view in the exhibition Reciting Women: Alia Bensliman & Khalilah Sabree at Art@Bainbridge.
With homemade watercolors, micron pens, and a passion for color and pattern, Alia Bensliman celebrates Amazigh women, Indigenous to North Africa. Embedding vivid portraits within tessellations inspired by Islamic arabesque motifs, she observes traditional Amazigh textiles, jewelry, and tattoo symbols while creating space to reflect on her own life and experience.
