Oil and Acrylic on canvas
36 x 24 x 1 inches

In Alone Together: I Want to Fall in Love, longing becomes rebellion. The repeated phrases “I want to fallin love” and “alone together” transform vulnerability into voltage—part prayer, part digital glitch. A fracturedgem hovers above classical forms, echoing pressure, beauty, and collapse. Najm reimagines desire asdefiance, treating rupture as renewal. Drawing from psychology and Sufi thought, she turns trauma anddisplacement into quiet alchemy. Within the tension between control and surrender, the work insists onsincerity in an age of spectacle—reminding us that fracture, too, can hold light.
