Rawan Kashkoush is a London-based Palestinian painter reflecting on memory. Through her use of the human body and its relationship to physical touch, Kashkoush attempts to paint how memory is subjectively recorded and never the same after recall. Each work contorts the human figure to demonstrate the low fidelity of the mind and the twisted power of time.

Having relocated homes and cities countlessly, longing often features in her work, demonstrated in the embrace, migration and ecstatic dance. Painting predominantly from her mind, she contends with her mental images of reality, often negotiating the flaws in those depictions intentionally, directly on the canvas.
