Meet Lamia Abukhadra, an artist exploring her Palestinian heritage
Univeristy of Minnesota grad, Lamia Abukhadra, is a Palestinian artist who makes politically-charged work about colonialism, occupation and genocide in Palestine and the Arab world.
Lamia Abukhadra, a local Palestinian-American artist, works on a print in her home studio on Saturday, Oct. 20. Abukhadra graduated from the University last spring and since then has taken the local art scene by storm with her politically-driven work. It often deals with her Palestinian heritage and tries to dismantle colonialist narratives.
