Artist Bios

Khalid Qasim

Khalid Qasim, originally from Yemen, has been detained at Guantánamo for over 15 years. He frequently experiments with the limited range of artistic materials Guantánamo affords; he has painted in coffee and on sand and gravel gathered from the prisoners’ exercise yard, and has created sculpture from various discarded materials, including MRE boxes.
