Asma Belhamar

Born in Dubai, 1988

Asma Belhama, portrait.

Asma Belhamar’s work explores the phenomenon of ‘megastructure’ in the UAE and confronts the visual memory of the land. Her design-based practice reflects her interest in surface and pattern design, and she makes fabric and paper wall installations, experimenting with printing and projection techniques in her construction of three-dimensional structures.
