cos.mona.ut (Mona Sharif) is a French/Syrian/Egyptian visual artist.
Mona began her journey in graphic design and art direction but soon gravitated towards more hands-on creative expressions, often finding her best pieces emerge from unplanned explorations and happy accidents - her creations reflect a joyful, optimistic spirit.

Co-founder of Repot, a plant shop and art space in Hackney Wick, Mona combines her passion for art and nature. Living in Hackney Wick for over 6 years, she has formed a strong bond with the area and its community and tries to contribute to its vibrant culture.
