Al-Dahleh's artistic practice is deeply rooted in ceramics, where he explores themes of identity and heritage. His works, such as "Spring" (2016) and "Ground Cracks" (2007), reflect a profound engagement with form and texture. Beyond his studio practice, he has contributed to the arts community as an educator, teaching evening courses in ceramics and sculpture at the Institute of Fine Arts under the Ministry of Culture from 1991 to 2004.
