A pioneering Saudi documentary photographer whose home is Jeddah but whose real studio is the world. Through her lens she catches moments that cross geography, revealing a deep spirituality, human connection and a divine presence woven into nature and into daily life.
Her career has been marked by a series of firsts: she was the first woman to document the whole of the Hajj and the first to exhibit in China. She has also recorded life in China, Japan, Korea and Iran. Her work explores where Islamic philosophy meets the medium, and the influence of Arabic poetry.
