Soad Abdel Rasoul employs multiple media to create detailed and interweaving human and geographical maps that trace our roots within the living world. By depicting metamorphosed figures, she does not seek to visualize human physical beauty but attempts to reflect on the earth’s elemental existence and its connections between humans.

Tree-like figures, branching veins, and arteries, and monstrous insect-like characters merge on ink-color-mixed media canvases and collage busts. Her use of map fragments and scientific illustrations of the human body re-conceptualizes the way we perceive space and repurposes notions of body, science, and nature.
