Sarah Alagroobi is a multidisciplinary artist, researcher and educator with an MA in Painting from the Royal College of Art, London. She explores notions of culture and identity in both Arab and Western contexts through post-colonial discourse. Her practice mines personal and collective experiences that portray an agile simplicity in expression of place, borders and a sense of belonging. She founded The Letters Project, an online platform of anonymous letters that spoke to the anthropological and socio-cultural climate of the Arab region.

Her work has been exhibited regionally and internationally at Somerset House, London, Salone del Mobile, Milan, Versus Art Project, Istanbul, Venice Biennale, Dutch Design Week, ME Collectors Room, Berlin and Warehouse421, Art Jameel, Art Dubai and Abu Dhabi Art.
