Representation of female activists, the female body in resistance in the MENA region

This project is a continuation of an investigation into the role of the female body in protests in the Muslim world. Can images invite viewers to reconsider their preconceptions about women, politics, religion and personal identity? Is it possible to overwrite deeply ingrained existing stereotypes?

This project seeks to contribute and broaden the debate on the representation of Muslim women through images. Addressing existing assumptions and (mis)readings of cultural signs. Artistic experimentation such as photographic, audio and video montage and cross-media will be conducted.
