About Me
Hello! My name is Deena Gad and I am a Darwin-raised printmaker. I am Egyptian and my work often explores the richness of the Northern Territory’s flora and fauna and motifs drawn from Ancient Egypt.
I began linoprinting at the age of 15 before returning to the medium in early 2025 after a long hiatus. My printmaking style is mainly bold and whimsical, especially where Australian Birds are concerned, but I do have some pieces that centre around modern architecture and the Ancient Egyptian world. Either way, my goal is to make my art make you look twice! Happy Shopping!
