Mariam Alnoami is an artist and designer who looks at the relationships between people and their surroundings, cartography, cognitive mapping and their impact on culture, identity, and environment. Her installations, mixed media works, and videography serve as a platform to explore, question, and create dialogue within oneself, as well as with others. A main focus in her practice is the impact of the rapid urban development phenomena in Bahrain and other cities around the world and their impact on spatial environment and how this affects social patterns within communities and urban fabrics.
