Born in 1974 in Gaza where he still lives and works, he has documented multiple displacements, episodes of war, and genocide through his drawings, made with whatever materials he could find, especially on UNRWA school notebooks. He received his Bachelor of Arts from Al-Aqsa University in 1999. He later founded the Eltiqa Group for Contemporary Arts, which hosts exhibitions and workshops for Palestinian artists. His practice has included design, installations, sculpture, photography, and graphic design with a focus on capturing nature and human activities. Solo and group exhibitions include: French Cultural Center, Palestine; Place de la Collégiale, Villefranche-de-Rouergue; Khalil Sakakini Centre, Ramallah; Jameel Arts Centre, Dubai; Darat al Funun, Amman; ArtZone, Palestine.
