About Me: 

it is always,repeatingly amazing for me how women are capable of anything.this website is a revelation to a type and group of creative women who really made me see how beauty can truly evolve from ugliness and how strength and freedom can be born from oppression.
i was born in 1976 in khartoum,to educated parents who believed completely in human rights and fighting against all types of discrimination,especially sexual. therefore, i believe i was raised in an oasis in the heart of a desert thristy for human respect!
