Suleika Mueller

Swiss-born Suleika was raised in a Sudanese Sufi Muslim order, attending school in Switzerland and traveling regularly to Sudan, Egypt, the UAE, and across Europe to engage with her Sufi community. This diverse upbringing, straddling geographical and religious boundaries, has shaped her distinct aesthetic and viewpoint, carving out a new space for individuals with hybrid identities.

Now based in London, her work serves as a tool for crossing boundaries, expressing emotions, and creating bridges. Central to her practice are authentic portrayals and stories, challenging harmful stereotypes, and promoting unity in diversity. Passionate about themes like spiritual practices, transcendental experiences, various forms of communities, and the human condition, Suleika approaches her subjects with empathy and vulnerability, practicing non-violence to contribute to a more compassionate, ethical, and sustainable future.
