Al-issa’s artistic practice ranges from drawing, sculpture, and photography to embroidery and new media. Her research and practice are intuitive, and process based. For the past few years, she has been focusing on projects that explore her relationship to the land where She was born (Iraq). Al-issa’s work was featured in an exhibition at the Anderson Center alongside works by other artists from the Iraqi-American Reconciliation Project.
During her residency, al-issa gave an artist talk to the Red Wing Women’s Network.
