Dora Dalila Cheffi had an interesting childhood. After her parents divorced when she was three, she spent half a year with her Finnish mother in the U.S. and the other half with her Tunisian father in Tunisia. Her mixed upbringing influenced her art, among other things.
Cheffi’s series Tunisian Sceneries was inspired by her unique life. “It’s about how it feels being a young mixed woman in Tunisia,” she told WePresent. “The bold colors I started using came from a very childlike naïve happy place. When I first moved here I thought everything was so wonderful, I was looking at everything through pink glasses,” Cheffi said.
