Welcome to the Dior Talks podcast series dedicated to the 10th edition of Dior Lady Art, hosted by Paris-based journalist Katya Foreman. For this milestone edition, 10 artists from across the globe were invited to reinterpret the iconic Lady Dior handbag, transforming it into a one-of-a-kind artwork.This episode invites us into the universe of Alymamah Rashed, a Kuwaiti visual artist and storyteller whose work is as intimate as it is expansive. Known for her poetic, multidimensional practice, Rashed explores the intersections of spirit, memory, and the quiet rituals of daily life. Her visual language is one of duality—femininity and masculinity, softness and density, ephemerality and permanence—all expressed through painting, sculpture, printmaking, and spontaneous writing.For her Dior Lady Art collaboration, Rashed approached the Lady Dior as a vessel of layered meaning. One bag draws on the sensual textures of Failaka Island’s seashore, where a single seashell, a patch of sand, or a barnacle becomes a sacred relic. The second is an homage to the native Humaith flower of Kuwait, its fleeting springtime presence captured through an explosion of 3D blooms, embroidered petals, and beadwork.In each piece, the figure is subtly embedded within the landscape, emerging through surface and texture. Inside, hidden poems and symbolic charms serve as secret offerings that deepen the emotional resonance of each work.Download the episode to explore Rashed’s world—where art becomes a vessel to “bodify” the spirits we birth across lifetimes.
