MUNA KHAMMASH Jordanian/Palestinian Artist
“I always see the world differently; through my paintings, I live and share the colourful world I feel and see. I live through my art and colours. Painting interior spaces allows me to set foot in another dimension. I temporarily become a visitor in these spaces, entering and expressing my feelings through the vibrant interior colours and positioning of the furniture.
Once my paintings are done, my visitations can be extended by hanging and creating additional spaces in my home.”
