The artist
Noura Alali is a multidisciplinary Emirati artist with a degree in visual arts. Her artistic practice spans mixed media, painting, sculpture, and digital illustration in the Web3 space.
Her works have been showcased across the UAE at notable venues such as Abu Dhabi Art, Sikka Art Fair in Dubai, Citizen E Gallery, Abu Dhabi Youth Hub, the Argentine Embassy, Expo 2020, and COP28 in the UN pavilion. Her art has also been featured internationally in exhibitions such as Rochester contemporary art, New York; IGOA in Toronto; the Mauritius International Art Fair in Port Louis; and the Art Fair at Le Carrousel du Louvre in Paris.
Through her art, Noura aims to craft visual narratives that delve into the depths of human emotions, blending the real with the surreal to evoke a sense of wonder and introspection. Her work explores behavior, emotions, and the unseen influences that shape our lives. Each piece serves as a window into a dreamlike world, where landscapes are not confined to the canvas but extend into an expansive, boundless space. This reflects her desire to transcend the ordinary and invite viewers to experience a realm where form and meaning are fluid.
