Mounira Al Solh’s practice embraces painting, embroidery, performative gestures, video and video installations. Irony and self-reflectivity are central strategies for her work, which explores feminist issues, tracks patterns of microhistory, is socially engaged and can be political and escapist all at once.

Nora Razian is Head of Exhibitions at Art Jameel. She has an MA in anthropology and cultural politics from Goldsmiths College, London, and has curated several solo and group exhibitions.
