Goals and Objectives:

“I always met a lot of men dominating the art field”, says Reem Aljeally - The Founder of Bait Alnisa, “The big names are all male, I kept wondering where are the women? I kept meeting a lot of very talented female artists, but there were still not as many as there were men.” So she built a platform to showcase female artists in Sudan and to support them and create a bond between them. At the moment it exists as a gallery, but in the future Reem is planning to work on a number of programmes with female artists. In the near future she is planning on working on a project called Studio Alnisa, to document the studios of female artists working in Khartoum.
