IYAD QANAZEA GALLERY is thrilled to present Asma Ghanem, a Palestinian artist based in Chicago, USA.

Asma Ghanem is a Palestinian artist, experimental musician, and writer based currently in Chicago, USA.

She was born in Damascus-Syria in 1991.

Asma has two degrees in audio-visual arts from the International Academy of Arts in Palestine in 2013 (BA) and a master’s degree from the University of Fine Arts in Toulouse-France (ISDAT) In 2016.

The works of Asma Ghanem are inspired by narrating the personal experience in an imaginative and anecdotal way in juxtaposition of having lived under occupation in Palestine.

The most essential contents of her artistic and musical works are connected to her childhood, the concept of homeland, the audio experience of her turbulent surroundings, the world of imagination, and love stories in an occupied place.

The artist employs research and content using different artistic techniques such as painting, drawing, music production, experimental music, animation,
writing, photography, and video.
