Sakina Saïdi is a French-Moroccan artist and illustrator based in London. Born and raised in France by Moroccan parents, Sakina grew up learning about different cultures and traditions. Her experiences nurtured her style and desire to represent this beautiful mix of cultures that now characterizes her personality and art.

We also talk about artistic validation, her thoughts on art and activism, as well as exploring identity as an artist, especially coming from a multicultural background.
