Hend Samir

check out her work at the Mattress Factory Museum!

>>  MATTRESS FACTORY  <<

Hometown: Egypt
Current City: Giza, Egypt
Considers self: an artist

Artist Statement:
Art is like a global language, I always think that ideas that people refuse to believe in real life; Art is capable of embracing these ideas and may convince the other to respect and accept them. That actually removes barriers between nations. Art is also one of the few remaining languages to gather different ideas and beliefs in peace!

The workshop has really added a lot to me, a new vision to be implemented in my art works using natural or man-made body tools.
 Now, and after being a Firefly Artist.  I’m not only thinking while painting, but at any time even while practicing my day to day life I’m producing art, art is not limited to a certain media but it’s a modern contemporary language indispensable for a better future.
