Reem's work straddles the line between chaos and harmony with themes that center around identity/politics, injustice, paradox and loss. She finds her way into her subject matter by drawing on memory, current news events and a call and response with her materials – a playful and often visceral experimentation into abstraction where expressive color co-mingles with form, composition and light to yield revelatory resolution and restitution; and a goal of balancing beauty, dissonance and hope.
