About Banna

Banna Bazzarie is based in Oceanside, California, United States. She is a multimedia artist with a passion for exploration and preservation of culture. Her practice often explores texture, light, culture, femininity, and nostalgia through water. Drawing inspiration from nature and culture, her work often layers these elements to create visual compositions that speak to both personal and collective narratives.

Through her lens, Banna invites viewers to slow down, look more closely, and reflect on their own relationship to nature, culture, and memory.
