Mona El
Bayoumi was born in Alexandria, Egypt and
raised by parents who taught at Michigan State
University. El-Bayoumi had tremendous exposure
to issues of social justice around the world
and in the United States, and it is these
themes that permeate and guide her work as an
artist. The struggles in Palestine, Egypt, the
Arab world in general, Iran, Central America,
South Africa and Eritrea are of significant
influence, and she reifies the nature of art as
a force in achieving social
change.
