PHOTOS BY MIDDLE EASTERN WOMEN ARTISTS

Our view from the outside in can be black and white, where there are grey tones in reality.
Looking at some of the art coming out of the Middle East in the last few years and the emergence of women with a strong voice makes me think we are only on the tip of an iceberg with art from this area of the world. I think these women artists have a lot to say and are gaining a foot hold and the vehicle in which to share their art and have their voices heard. I believe they will become a strong force in the art world in the future. Look at some of the work of some of these Middle Eastern artists, and prepare to be amazed and come away with a different cultural view.
