Egyptian artist in Dubai highlights women’s issues in her works

From using tissue papers, to nail polish and tea bags, Dubai-based artist Samar Kamel has her own unique ways of delivering a message to the wider community. The Egyptian artist who moved to Dubai 30 years ago with her husband, is an author with two published works and curator of World Art Dubai (WAD). She said that she was sitting in her studio, savouring a cup of tea, when the idea of using tea bags for her paintings struck her.
