Heba Ismail on Coming Into Her Own Movement 'Hebaism'
Heba Ismail, raised in Jeddah surrounded by art and history, has developed a unique style she calls Hebaism.
Hebaism is a distinct language that combines Cubism, Fauvism, and Saudi heritage into a work that is entirely her own.
“It’s how I would describe my distinctive art style and brand,”
Ismail says, using this term to describe her art and the feelings it evokes in others.
Born and raised in Jeddah in the 1990s, Ismail works primarily with painting, creating thick-lined, angular portraits in oil or acrylic.
Her work is an amalgam of various periods that have influenced her since childhood, including Cubist, Fauvist, and Surrealist styles.
