Zahra Marwan

A delicate combination of random thoughts and memories, Zahra Marwan’s watercolor illustrations permeate with whimsy and nostalgia. After immigrating to the United States from Kuwait in the late 1990s, Marwan sought to reclaim through her works her language, community, and sense of family. Despite the hardships surrounding her transition to an unfamiliar part of the world, she believes it is possible to find ease and comfort within adversity.
