About the sculptor: Monkith's passion for art began as he was growing up in Bagdad. However, in 1978, he escaped Iraq, and arived in Syria, and so began many years of wandering from one country to the next. In 1993, after years without a valid passport or national identity, he became a dutch citizen.
