Kareen Adam

Kareen is a Maldivian-Australian visual artist based in Melbourne. The experience of living between multiple cultures, particularly negotiating between the East and the West informs her practice. Ideas about transitions, cultural identity, and the juncture between 'local' and the 'visitor' emerge in her work.

Kareen explores these ideas using various mediums including printmaking, drawing, painting, digital media and video. Kareen has exhibited in Maldives, Australia, and Hong Kong and has a work included in the State Library of Queensland collection.
