BIOGRAPHY
Alma Faham is an Arab American contemporary artist whose work explores themes of spirituality, memory, nostalgia, and human connection through abstract and mixed-media painting. Born and raised in Kuwait, she later lived in Jordan, Greece, and the United States, experiences that shaped her appreciation for diverse cultures and artistic traditions. Faham holds a degree in Architectural Engineering from the University of Jordan, and her work often reflects a balance between structural composition and emotional expression. Since 2015, she has participated in exhibitions, cultural events, and artist interviews. Drawing inspiration from deeply personal moments and experiences that leave a lasting impression on the soul, her work invites viewers to reflect, feel, and connect.
