Tala Akkawi

Artist. Architect. Witness.

Tala Akkawi is an award-winning Palestinian-British political artist and architect. UCL-educated. Internationally recognised. Unsilenced. Raw-material art bearing witness to justice, displacement, and the lives behind every headline.

Many places at once — Lebanese, Iraqi, Palestinian, British. Queer, female, neurodivergent. Making political art because the world demands it.

The work is physical and uncompromising — concrete, welded steel, raw materials chosen for truth, not beauty. Architectural training runs through everything. 

This channel is testimony: to injustice, to identity, to the places that made me and the ones being unmade.
For justice. For Palestine. For all the unnamed.
