Karim Abu Shakra

Karim Abu Shakra was born in 1982, in the city of Umm al-Fahem in Palestine. In 2000, he graduated from Bet Berril Fine Arts School as an artist. Abu Shakra’s main encouragement came from his late uncle, Assem Abu Shakra, who endlessly supported his passion for art. Fragments of his childhood memories are his main source of inspiration in his art; they transmit his deep connection with nature and with his surroundings.
