Artbooth Gallery presents Encoded in Petals, a solo exhibition by Soraya Abu Naba’a that brings together painting, textile installation, drawing, sculpture, and spatial intervention. Developed over several years, the exhibition reflects a sustained engagement with nature, memory, women’s labor, and the transmission of ancestral knowledge. Flowers appear not as ornament, but as vessels through which histories of care, resilience, and embodied intelligence are carried forward.

Informed by Abu Naba’a’s lived experience across the Caribbean, the Middle East, Europe, and the United States, the exhibition approaches identity as something shaped through movement, material, and sensory memory. Her visual language draws from abstraction, traditional craft, digital aesthetics, and ecological awareness. Color, texture, and form operate as systems of communication. Accumulated linework gives shape to petals, textiles unfold as terrains, and craft functions as both archive and continuity.
