About the artist

Juman Nemri — Acrylic on Board, 25 × 40 cm (representative image)
Juman Nemri

Jordan, b. 1974

Juman Nemri (جمان نمري), born in 1974 in Jordan, is a contemporary visual artist recognized for her dynamic exploration of mixed media, painting, and installation. Her work often delves into themes of identity, memory, and the interplay between personal and collective narratives, utilizing a vibrant palette and layered compositions. Nemri’s artistic practice is marked by an experimental approach, blending traditional techniques with modern materials to create evocative visual experiences.

Nemri has exhibited extensively in Jordan and the broader Middle East, with notable institutional exhibitions at venues such as Darat al Funun in Amman, a leading center for contemporary Arab art. Her participation in group and solo shows has contributed to her reputation as a significant figure in the Jordanian art scene. While her works have been featured in regional galleries and cultural institutions, there is no verified record of her artworks being sold at major international auction houses such as Christie’s, Sotheby’s, or Bonhams as of the latest available information. Juman Nemri continues to live and work in Jordan, contributing to the development of contemporary art in the region through both her creative output and engagement with the artistic community.

Acrylic

A fast-drying, water-based paint developed in the twentieth century. Versatile and vivid, it can mimic oil or watercolor and suits bold, flat color — a favourite of many contemporary artists across the region.

Expressionism

Art that prioritizes emotion and inner experience over realistic depiction, using distortion, bold color, and energetic mark-making. In the region it gave modern artists a language for memory, displacement, and identity.
