My body belongs to my family's honor. As a woman who grew up in the Middle East, my freedom has always been limited by the traditions and norms of my homeland, Kuwait.

In this body of work, I explore the freedom of the Arab female body, but without showing nudity. FROM BEHIND THE VEIL allows me and other women in the Middle East, to speak from within the limits of tradition and religion, and in so doing to create a dialogue with these very limits themselves.
