Exploring memory, heritage, gender roles and urban transformation through mixed media, photography and installation, Jaralla has developed a research-driven practice that combines personal narratives with broader cultural histories. She holds a BFA in Visual Arts from Zayed University and has exhibited regionally and internationally, including participation in Abu Dhabi Art and the solo exhibition Seham at Tabari Artspace, and is recognised as part of a new generation of Emirati artists shaping contemporary visual culture.
Jaralla participated in Proximities at the Seoul Museum of Art (SeMA), the landmark exhibition presented by Abu Dhabi Music & Arts Foundation and SeMA as part of the Abu Dhabi Festival Abroad programme. She was among more than 40 UAE-based artists, including 33 Emiratis, featured in the first and largest exhibition of contemporary visual art from the UAE ever presented in East Asia.
“I saw my work in front of a different audience and culture.”
