About the Artist
Halima Aziz, born in Hagen, Germany, is a dedicated Palestinian visual artist and communication design graduate based in Germany. With her mother from Tulkarm and her father from Gaza, she spent part of her childhood in Palestine before returning to Germany after experiencing the Gaza War in 2008.
From an early age, Halima was captivated by art and began painting professionally in 2017 through an art school project. She embraces a spontaneous and intuitive approach to her art, creating vibrant, eye-catching paintings that convey deep emotions and meanings.
Her inspirations include nature, art museums, books, and her homeland, Palestine. Through her work, Halima proudly showcases Palestinian heritage, identity, culture, history, and traditions, connecting deeply with her roots. Each brushstroke tells a story of the Palestinian people and their ongoing struggle for liberation. She aspires for her meaningful paintings to keep the Palestinian history and spirit alive.
Halima's artwork has been exhibited six times. In 2020, she featured at the Palestine Museum US in America. She participated in the P21 Gallery in London in December 2021 and held her third exhibition in Münster in February 2022. Her subsequent exhibitions took place on Palestinian Culture Day in Wuppertal in October 2022, followed by showcases in Berlin and Cologne in December 2022.
