My work is in photography, printmaking, installation
and bookarts.  My themes are social and political issues.

Here's a recent article about me and my work
This is a 4 page double sided accordion artists  book.
I've used paper lithographs from photo portraits, photos taken around the World Trade Center site
and a quote in English and Arabic,

Each page is 11 x 17".
I interviewed and photographed several Muslim Americans and talked with them about how they feel about
their place in America.
