“Exhibiting in a public space is very enriching and motivating. Art, physical space, and people come together to form a very special synergy. It makes me extremely happy to think that I can also convey to people the joy and enthusiasm that each canvas contains.”

The works of artist Houda Bakkali has filled the exhibition corridor of Spain’s Madrid Airport Terminal T2.

“Women and Digital Art” is made up of 30 large-format canvases based on digital illustration, digital collage, and acrylic, as well as animated versions using augmented reality. The art exhibition runs from October 3rd, 2022 to November 3rd, 2022.

Women have always been an inspirational part of Houda Bakkali’s work. “The figure of the woman is inspired by my mother, in her serene and joyful vision of life. She represents the ideal of beauty, elegant, shrouded in mystery, but at the same time powerfully passionate and transgressive,” the artist says.

Digital tools, the creation of immersive spaces, and her vision combined with physical canvases form the foundation of this exhibition, which finds in new technologies a powerful language to convey the motivations behind the each piece. They also serve as a perfect tool for creating playful, dynamic, and participatory environments where the audience interacts with art in a unique and different way. Each canvas becomes a medium for information, communication, and entertainment.
