Heba Khalifa — Visual Artist & Documentary Photographer

“Arts and culture matter to me because they are the path through which I come to know myself and the world”

For Heba Khalifa, art is not an add-on to life, it is a passage through life. A way out of confinement, and a way inward at the same time. Through art and culture, she says, she discovered the vastness and diversity of the world beyond the narrow space she once inhabited. And through the same passage, she learned how to descend into herself, discovering depths she didn’t know existed.
