Jawa El Khash is an artist, researcher and technologist. She artistically adopts the mediums of holography, web based simulation, 3D modelling, and virtual reality to archive, re-imagine and resurrect cultural artifacts, art history and botanical life. Her work is inspired by the celebration of intercivilizational exchange of ideas, craft, and cultural heritage, while looking into the future of museology, digital archaeology and 3D heritage.
