Lulua Alyahya

Lulua Alyahya (b.1998) holds a BFA from the Slade School of Fine Art (UK) and an MFA from Goldsmiths, University of London (UK). Her paintings are sparsely composed of dislocated subjects, posing strange yet familiar accounts of culturally resonant archetypes. The depicted figures are often steeped in irony, candid and idle, situated against nondescript backgrounds.
