What?

Maha Alasaker is a Kuwait-based visual artist. She graduated from the International Center of Photography in 2014.

Maha uses her artwork to gain a better understanding of herself while also addressing issues of culture and identity. Her interest is in how a woman's upbringing influences her identity and self-worth. Maha's work has been shown in numerous exhibitions in New York City, London, the United Arab Emirates, and Kuwait. Her work has appeared in publications such as Harper's Bazaar, Vogue, Marie Claire, and Rolling Stone. Maha published her first photo book, "Women of Kuwait," in 2019, which was purchased by the Getty Research Institute and The Thomas J. Watson Library at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
