Alma Bakiaj is Albanian artist based in London. She works across drawing, painting, installation, mixed media and video art. Her practice explores memory, the body, femininity, migration, ancestry and inherited rituals, often through layering, repetition, transparency and fragmentation. Drawing from personal experience, cultural memory and domestic forms of knowledge, she is interested in how identity is shaped, carried and transformed across generations, borders and time.
