About Khaddouj Barghout
Khaddouj Barghout (1999) lives and works in Rotterdam (NL).
Being fascinated by strong contradictions, she portrays conflicts between purity and vulgarity, between grace and depravity. This leaves horror and lust to merge together into detailed and defying artworks.
The use of detail and strong contrasts is beneficial to the depiction of the constant underlying presence of dread, rage and madness. However, on the surface she plays with a peculiar wittiness which leaves the viewer all the more trapped in contrariety.
