Meet Badr Ali (b. 1992) is a Painter living and working between Jeddah and Berlin. Badr explores the use of gestural drawing as an integral tool within his studio practice. Using drawing to record information, sensations, experiences and ideas which are later translated into other formats such as printmaking, painting or a combination of both.
