Last Words by Hosna Karnama - Artwork

In this artwork, Hosna delves into the human pursuit of connection and self-expression. She believes that we all harbor unspoken emotions, akin to hazy mental images that may never find their voice in words. Despite the promises of social media to enhance communication, there remains a palpable gap in our ability to convey our innermost thoughts and emotions. As an artist, Hosna's mission is to represent these inner voices and emotions through visual art, articulating and imagining these unspoken thoughts in a clear, succinct, and abstract manner.
