Biography

cultural narratives eman hussein portrait

Eman Hussein was born in 1986 in Cairo, Egypt. She is an Egyptian architect and artist who leads a creative studio that blurs the boundaries between art, architecture, and design. Eman studied architecture at the Modern Science and Arts University in Cairo and received her Master’s degree from the University of Greenwich, London.

In 2008, Eman contributed to the Global Architect Symposium in London with a project investigating how architects operate and interact differently across the world with the globalised nature of culture and design. In 2010, she started working at Alchemy Design Studio, beginning as a designer and gradually being promoted to Head of the Design Department and eventually one of the Art Directors.

By the end of 2010, Eman began studying art with the respected artist Magd El Sagini, embarking on a five-year journey of learning about art and life. This experience was a turning point in her life. Eman’s work was first exhibited at UBUNTU along with other students of Magd El Sagini.
