Kbirt Minkejja Maltese Art Print

I found this print while wandering the streets of Valletta. The artist, Maria Borg, is a local and I loved her unique prints and loved that they are printed on a natural cotton paper. "Kbirt Minkejja" means, "I grew inspite" and represents the beauty that comes from struggles.

Maria Borg (b. 1993) is a Maltese visual artist whose work is deeply personal and
often has a confessional or narrative approach. Maria lives and works in Malta, spreading
her time between teaching art and her studio practice. She has taken part in a variety of
local collective exhibitions. Her first two solo exhibitions both happened in 2021; ‘homebody’took place at MUŻA and ‘Touch Me’ took place at The Malta Society of Arts. Her current work explores themes of eco-feminism and pan-psychism, using the cultivation of plants as a metaphor for growth and healing.
