Raja'a Khalid is an artist from Dubai. She received her MFA in Fine Art from Cornell University in 2013. Her practice is concerned with the Arabian Gulf region and its contemporary narratives of class, luxury and consumer culture. Her current work aims to subtly critique the Gulf's own streaming constructions of masculinity, athleticism, adornment, desire, conspicuous production and crypto – secularity.
