Mona Hatoum, New York

A luminous hand-coloured silver gelatin print by Youssef Nabil depicts the celebrated artist Mona Hatoum in New York, rendered in Nabil's signature painterly palette that evokes the nostalgic glamour of mid-twentieth century cinema and portraiture. The delicate, manually applied colour breathes warmth and intimacy into the photographic surface, transforming the image into something that exists between documentation and dream. Nabil's meticulous technique honours his subject with a timeless, almost mythological quality, elevating portraiture into a deeply personal act of homage.
