This painting, from the artist’s Migration series, reflects the artist’s continuous quest for meaning and representation to everything around her. The sole inspiration of her work beyond the study of calligraphic forms is driven by poetry. Each of Shadi’s artworks represent a poem that is either her own or inspired by famous Sufi poets such Rumi and Hafiz. Sometimes my mood and soul change sometimes full of love. Sometimes sadness.
Sometimes just disappointing.
I always have challenges with my soul and life.
I think it’s not only about me, it’s about humanity too.
When you can’t be dealing with it, you have to leave. You have to emigrate. Like warmth and coldness without organization.
In her signature abstract calligraphy style, Shadi expresses a verse of one of her favorite poets, Hafiz: “Found nothing more joyful than the sound of words of love
In this turning Merry-Go-Round that you rewind”

Emergeast is an online gallery championing the latest generation of emerging Middle Eastern & North African artists to a new generation of young collectors. Emergeast’s aim, in collaboration with the Aga Khan Museum Shop, is to break down the barriers to collecting art by facilitating access to high quality artworks at accessible prices.
Through a highly curated selection of Middle East and North African (MENA) artists, our mission is to incubate an un-intimidating space for young collectors, first time buyers and general art enthusiasts to foster a deep connection between artists and collector for generations to come.
At Emergeast x Aga Khan Museum Shop, we believe everyone has a story to tell. Beyond the aesthetics, the story and inspirations behind an artwork can support one’s personal narrative and journey thereafter. Through building our Urbanite community of collectors, we aim to expand and develop a cultural appetite for the arts and beyond.
