COLLECTION: SARA AHLI

Sara Ahli (b. 1993) is an artist and fashion designer living and working in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Having led personal projects in fashion, Ahli has transitioned to sculpture as a new branch of her practice. Her sculptural work explores themes of discomfort and pressure while incorporating a sense of play. Ahli stages situations of tension, testing the limitations of the materials in reference to the body. In 2015, Ahli earned her BFA from the California College of the Arts, San Francisco. In 2020, she completed the Salama bint Hamdan Emerging Artists Fellowship (SEAF), in partnership with the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD).
