Jalal Luqman: A story of loss, reinvention, and relentless creativity. From the first digital artist in the Arab world to mastering new mediums, his journey is one you won’t forget.

Sitting with Jalal for our first-ever Artse Dialogues felt like stepping into the mind of someone who has lived art in every way possible. He spoke about being self-taught, about breaking rules before they were even written, and about the fire. His studio burned down, everything was gone. But instead of stopping, he started again.

We talked about what it means to be an artist in a world obsessed with trends, the battle between truth and commercial success, and the loneliness of staying authentic. Jalal doesn’t sugarcoat things. He questions, challenges, and refuses to play it safe.

The full episode of our first Artse Dialogues is now live on @theartse__. Step into the world of an artist who turns every challenge into creation.
