Ms. Khalil focuses in her artistic and sculptural topics on women, childhood and human struggles. She presents these topics using mixed media through a mixture of art movements, including impressionism, abstraction, expressionism and realism, along with a manner that tends to reflect the conflicts witnessed by the world in an expressive way.
My work can be described as a creative legacy of the Modern Expressionist school, in which I conceal through the characters I draw stories about the painful, mysterious and tense environment in which I live. Every element in the painting is a story that I just want people to delve into and explore. It is inspired by the situation in which I live in a homeland without identity, where I dream of inner and outer peace and aspire to live in our Arab society in peace, tranquility, stability and prosperity. It has a spiritual significance and the sacrifices it made have clear repercussions on human society in order to express the sanctity of the subject, identity and citizenship. Animals and birds have allegorical historical meanings, which gives the artwork an ambiguous and intriguing feature of commentary.
