Digital artist Houda Bakkali has released her new series “The duality of art” to honor International Women’s Day 2024.

Bakkali emphasizes the new utilities and uses of digital art, which makes it more accessible, simpler, and democratizes it. The series will be presented from March 1st – 31st, 2024 at various events and platforms, including augmented reality and workshops.

“Seeing life in a monochromatic version is an option. Seeing it in infinite colors that have not yet been invented is another option. Wanting absolutely everything, without fear of ambition. Art of turning happiness into a habit. Art as a tool for conversation, because art speaks – about beauty and love – and knows how to listen. Art floods the world with enthusiasm, capable of overcoming uncertainty.

Art challenges distant and opposite worlds with creativity. Art uses the power of tenderness and the fascination of beauty as tools. Art uses kind words, the right ones. Art excites, captivates and can change everything.

It is that captivating dynamism that immortalizes powerful women, those who do not need spotlights or headlines to shine. Those who believe in a hopeful future and build it.

Those of the invincible force of affection and contagious enthusiasm. They turn the Mediterranean blues into celebrations of freedom. Women who flood the world with colorful ideas without justifying themselves for loving all the beautiful things in life. Women who love. Women who observe serenely, who do, who unite. Their silence is an overwhelming voice of freedom, which when heard among the noise of nothingness conquers everything.” – Houda Bakkali
