Meet Zaina Zayed, an artist whose mesmerizing creations take the form of a single, continuous line that seems to go on forever. Through her contemporary doodle art, she skillfully captures thoughts and emotions, infusing her work with mindfulness and meditation.

Witnessing the therapeutic effects of this creative outlet in managing her stress, she embraced the flowing line and filled page after page with intricate doodles. Drawing inspiration from her daily life, she began to transform these seemingly random squiggles into mesmerizing works of art.
At the core of Zaina Zayed’s doodle art lies a continuous chain of thoughts, starting from a single point and evolving into complex forms that take on a life of their own. Each stroke and twist of the line reflects the inner workings of the human mind, a visual representation of how thoughts intertwine and contribute to shaping our reality. Her art beautifully captures the diverse yet interconnected worlds that we inhabit, with each individual possessing their own unique chain of thoughts.
