Hana Kanee

Hana Kanee (b.1992, Jeddah) is a painter and mixed media artist. Her work aims to expand the limits of landscape and portraiture through abstract representations and themes of everyday life within the context of Saudi Arabia. Capturing conflict is a recurrent subject for Kanee, be it through depictions of traditional landscapes of Tendaha, the village she was raised in, located in the South of Saudi Arabia, or the changes in the region’s urbanization, the relationships between millennials and the generations preceding them, or the struggle to find balance of identity, embracing heritage and/or its modernization.
