Maytha Abdullah on her work and perspective

Mithaa Abdullah, the Emirati artist, focuses her work on shaping her perspective on herself and the world through a blend of art and exploration of myths and folk heritage. She explains that her visual language relies on creating an emotional impact through her artworks, where the artist not only considers what the audience perceives but also emphasizes what they feel, viewing art as a means to understand both humans and the world. She highlights the importance of fundamental questions she has pondered since childhood about the nature of fear and memory, with doubt serving as her constant companion, using art as a space for reflection and experimentation. She believes that the Emirati art scene is experiencing a stage of maturity and affirms that the current goal of Emirati artists is to make a genuine impact that enriches the global artistic landscape despite the uniqueness of the place. She aspires to produce works that speak a universal human language. She is convinced that honest art reveals an inner truth and that with every piece she creates, she learns and discovers something new about herself. She emphasizes that an artist leaves a mark through their work, and that mark changes as the artist evolves. She values questions highly and continues to explore how memory can become embodied and how intangible things inhabit us. In an encouraging message, she underscores the importance for Emirati women to focus on the true question that fills them rather than solely on achieving a global footprint, believing that a genuine artist is recognized by the questions they remain faithful to, even if they do not always find answers.
