Biography
Inji Efflatoun (1924–1989) was an Egyptian painter and feminist and communist activist. She studied with Kamel el-Telmissany and participated in Art et Liberté exhibitions before developing pictures of rural work and social inequality. She continued painting during imprisonment from 1959 to 1963. Her later White Light paintings use exposed backgrounds and short strokes of bright colour.
