About Taqwa Ali

Taqwa Bn. Ali born Sudan, 1997. Is an interdisciplinary artist based in The Netherlands. 

In her work, she employs various media, such as painting, sculpture, and performative interventions, to engage with themes of translocation and integration through materialization.

Her research-based practice centers on understanding the symbolism of materials and their capacity to stitch gaps formed by trans-locational experiences, particularly within the diaspora space.

In 2023, Ali was awarded the Henrietta Hustinx prize for her research project ‘The liminal space’, concerned with tracing the Sudanese diaspora’s presence in Limburg through clay. As well as a national award of the Royal Prize for Modern Painting 2025, initiated by the Dutch king, for her Sudanese Hibiscus painting series, which explores themes of identity and material, and migration
