Between Worlds: The Art of Dalya Moumina

Join us on May 1st at 6 PM at Sotheby's New York for an exclusive exhibition featuring the evocative landscapes of Dalya Moumina, a Saudi-Filipina artist whose work bridges diverse cultural narratives. Born in Washington, D.C., and raised in Jeddah, Moumina's art is deeply influenced by her experiences in Saudi Arabia and the Philippines. Her oil paintings capture the majestic authority of nature and the metamorphosis of different topographies, inviting viewers on a journey through both realized and imagined landscapes. ​

Moumina's distinctive style reflects the contrasting landscapes of her upbringing—from the serene waters of the Red Sea to the lush islands of the Philippines. Her work seamlessly blends interior and exterior terrains, utilizing a medley of techniques—from collage and drawing to oil painting—to create compositions that are both transcendental and deeply personal. Her exploration of memory and musicality infuses her work with a conceptual dimension, forging a singular vision of the nuances in our ever-changing landscape. ​

Currently pursuing her Master's at Columbia University, Moumina continues to evolve her artistic practice, drawing inspiration from her rich cultural heritage and the dynamic environment of New York City. This exhibition at Sotheby's offers a rare opportunity to experience her latest creations, each piece resonating with the rhythms of nature and the subconscious. ​

Don't miss this opportunity to immerse yourself in the mesmerizing allure of Dalya Moumina's fictional worlds and explore the interconnectedness of nature and human experience through her visionary art.
