Artist's Statement
The hand of Fatima (commemorating Fatima Zahra, the
daughter of Prophet Muhammad) is a significant symbol in
Arabic culture. Sometimes referred to as Hamsa, it is
used to protect against the bad eye. The hand and its
belief in protection seemed particularly relevant for me
to use in the painting as it is recognized and
understood in many cultures, regardless of religion and
language.
I like to use words in my paintings. The words chosen
for this painting express how we share symbolic things
across cultures. The feeling of love has no boundaries,
and is something felt by all humans, regardless of
religion, culture or race.
