30 September, 2024

Born and Raised in Washington, DC, Al-Arashi has worked independently as an artist with a focus on the image in the fine arts, documentary, and commercial sectors in North America, Europe, and the MENA region. Her practice focuses on how images shape the way we perceive the world around us. As an Arab-American woman born and raised in the United States, her interest in photography was sparked by the limited visual narratives in Western media post-9/11. Her work spans various mediums, while always staying rooted in the critical reflection of image making. Yumna’s work has been supported by MoMA PS1, The International Women’s Media Foundation, CIRCA Prize 2024, The National Portrait Gallery London, and The Arab Fund for Arts and Cultur
