"I make to understand, not to explain. The work begins in a place I can't quite name - beneath language, where instinct leads and thought follows. I grew up in West Virginia with a Muslim mother and a Christian father. While I don’t think this background directly influences my work, I do believe the layered, often contradictory subconscious behind the scenes of my life is what drives it."

Artist Interview:
Susanne Tabet
My work is a direct reflection of my identity—a human being, a woman, a global citizen, and an artivist—shaped by lived experiences that have profoundly influenced my artistic practice. Having been born and raised in the Middle East, I have navigated the complexities of political and social oppression, witnessed the lasting scars of war, and undergone the transformative journey of immigration
This project seeks to remind viewers that those experiencing homelessness are not defined solely by their circumstances, but by their strength, complexity, and humanity. Ultimately, my work is about using photography to amplify the voices of those who have long been marginalized and silenced.
For me, the process is about breaking rules, silencing the inner critic, and allowing what’s raw and uncomfortable to surface. That energy lives in the final piece—you can feel the layers of impulse, struggle, and release. It’s not about perfection; it’s about truth, even if it’s messy or loud.
