Mai Majdy, Egyptian artist born in Tripoli, raised and living in the UAE since the 80’s. She earned her Bachelor’s degree from Applied Arts Cairo (2006). She has over 10 years’ experience in arts and creative sectors. She is a professional artist with live interactive art performances. Her artwork, mostly about Middle Eastern culture, often depicts portraiture as her preferred subject matter of choice, visualizing the personality and capturing the beauty of the Arabian features. She truly believes that there is no better mirror of society than the faces of its people. Her primary medium is oil paints, although she often indulges in sketching using various art mediums. Mai was influenced by the great impressionist Vincent van Gogh. She has taken what Van Gogh created and modified the style to meet her own ideas. She utilizes impasto technique to draw the quick strokes of the impressionists into long curvy lines creating paintings vivid with color and exaggeration. Her work has been showcased on several exhibitions and owned by private and public collections in many countries such as France, USA, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Russia and Egypt.

Mai's love of Arabic culture is firmly rooted in her soul, that’s why she finds portraying Arabs and visualizing their culture is a destiny for her, a joyful way to share her passion for art.
