Overview
About Me
I'm a multidisciplinary artist focusing my work and research on themes of identity, alterity, and their borderlands. I started my training in theatre before pursuing studies in fields of psychology, Arabic, and migrations. I now divide most of my time between Canada and Palestine.
I want to explore what is most intimate and most foreign in us and play with the threads that link them together; look for the plurality and diversity within ourselves and each other.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Hospitality is precious. I believe it is through it that a good community and society can be built and evolve, I feel it needs to be cultivated and spread.
"To live free and single like a tree and in fraternity like a forest/this longing is ours." - Nazim Hikmet
