Mounia Dadi's paintings ask the viewer to consider the inner world against the outer world. Her human figures are blank canvases onto which Mounia conjures all the drama and emotion of a rich inner life. Dadi locates her inspiration within "the human condition in all its facets, I believe the story of each of us is written within ourselves, from ecstasy to agony, every single pain, affliction has its own untold story and its own exploration." Indeed, her paintings are an exploration of the density and depth of human experience, rendered through lush colors and delicate lines. Mounia Dadi was born in Casablanca, Morocco. Dadi has exhibited her work worldwide and one of her pieces has recently been selected for the annual poster of the International Festival of African and Creole Film. She currently lives and works in New York.
