I am Arjeta Mala

After high school, I went to the Art Academy in Prishtina, Kosovo. In 1987, I graduated as a graphic designer.

In the Netherlands, I further developed myself as an artist.

I now work in two styles; first, I create realistic portraits. In 2017, my portrait of Rembrandt was chosen from many thousands of submissions and exhibited at the Rijksmuseum. Secondly, I create modern work on paper with ink. I have exhibited this work in the Netherlands, Germany, Spain, Belgium, and Kosovo.
In December 2023, I won the second prize at the International Drawing Biennale in Ferizaj - Kosovo
