Through her art, Atallah strives to explore cultural narratives and foster connections within local communities.
Drawing on her Palestinian, Lebanese, and Irish heritage, she incorporates sacred geometrical motifs, symbolic motifs and Arabic calligraphy in her work.

Ultimately, her work aims to honor lives that resist erasure and demand dignity.
