Aliyah's art is deeply personal, drawing from her experiences as a black woman, mother, and cancer survivor.

        Community is at the heart of Aliyah's work. She believes that art can be a powerful tool for bringing people together and creating a sense of belonging. Her murals, in particular, are often created in collaboration with members of the community, reflecting the unique experiences and perspectives of those who live there. Aliyah sees her art as a way to start conversations and build bridges between people, breaking down the barriers that divide us.

 

         Aliyah's work is not just about highlighting the good in life. She draws from both the positive and negative aspects of her experiences to illustrate her story. By doing so, she creates a space for empathy and understanding, allowing others to see the world through her eyes. Her work is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of art to heal and inspire. Through her art, Aliyah Sidqe is making a difference, one brushstroke at a time.
