Biography : Sarah Elqa is a self-taught French-Moroccan artist. After working as a fashion designer for a decade, she fully embraced painting as her true form of expression. Her creative identity is shaped by her dual cultural heritage, frequent travels, and a strong family legacy in art—she is a descendant of the French Fauvist painter Maurice de Vlaminck.

Her work features rich and colorful figurations, often portraying atypical characters full of emotion, reflection, and social commentary. Through vivid palettes and layered compositions, Sarah’s paintings explore the human condition, identity, and the structures of modern life. She has exhibited in Miami, New York, Séoul and other international venues, and her works are part of prestigious private collections.

Sarah Elqa’s “Movement” collection is a bold and emotional portrayal of modern societies and the people within them. Through vibrant colors and expressive abstraction, she encourages us to see both the beauty and complexity of the world we live in.

Title: Unbroken Ukraine - Ilona 1

Market value: 10,600 Euros.

Dimensions: 90 x 90 cm

Description: UV print on bullet shell casings and resin.

If you need a longer text:

Russia´s invasion of Ukraine, which began on February 24, 2022, constitutes one of the largest conventional wars since World War II. The level of destruction across Ukraine is unfathomable with several cities and towns being reduced to rubble. The fighting has also unleashed the largest refugee crisis in the world with over 8 million people being displaced inside Ukraine and 7 million fleeing the country.

The Unbroken Project is the result of an artistic collaboration between Felipe Jácome (photographer) and Svetlana Onipko (photographer and dancer of the Ukrainian National Ballet). The artists met 2 years before the war during a photoshoot in Kyiv and connected over their love for photography.

For this project, the artists transfer images of Ukrainian ballerinas displaced by the conflict onto bullet casings. The strength, determination, and beauty of the dancers is juxtaposed with the senseless violence, brutality, and destruction inflicted by the bullets.

The photos of the ballerinas are printed directly onto panels of bullet casings using a UV printer.
