Look Closer! A Thought Provoking Solo Art Exhibition by artist Fatima Matar.

In her paintings of “Doors”, artist Fatima Matar invites viewers to step closer to the canvas, bending down to peer through a small keyhole. This intimate act reveals a fragmented image portraying a distressing scene of a man inflicting harm upon a woman. This interaction emphasizes the hidden nature of domestic abuse, and sexual harassment at work, where victims often suffer in silence due to the fear of further violence.

Look Closer! compels us to confront the obscured reality of domestic violence and harassment at work, and encourages us to take a stand against this ongoing crisis. Through Matar’s powerful art, we are reminded that change starts with acknowledging the problem and fostering a collective commitment to a safer and more compassionate future.
