Lives and works in the UAE
Alia Zaal is a multidisciplinary artist from the UAE who explores memory, history, and her surroundings' changing urban and natural environment. Exploring the connection between vision and perception, her work often tracks the interplay between digital and analog.
Her paintings are based on personal photographs - of interiors, landscapes, and scenes extracted from her visual diary. The transformation of images from one medium to another is seen as an allegory of the perceptions and lenses through which memories pass
