Adeela Suleman

That's just the way it is
[...] In That's just the way it is, prickles bristle across part of the outer case, like defensive hedgehogs,
and on the other part they become a bed of nails,
a place of suffering and segregation.

Hawwa Bai with her Apple Tree and Parrot
[...] We are in the Garden of Eden, more apparent from the bright red apples on the ground rather
than those still clinging to the branches of the tree. The characters animating this artistic story all lie somewhere along the border between the secular and the mystical, the biblical and autobiographical, the worlds of fauna and flora in which everything seems to flow naturally, and the human world, always undecided as to whether to choose or not, then in conflict as to whether the choice
was the right one.

Capsule - Case 3-4-5 - Khalida - Shahida
[...] The works were created to cushion and protect the female head and body, with a touch
of sophistication and vanity that turns them
into jewels sparkling in the light, precious
and unique pieces created by Adeela's shrewd
and agile inventiveness. Paradoxically,
these works have a use - albeit a virtuous one - other than their original purpose: they protect,
yet are also elevated to the role of objet d'art.
