Saudi multidisciplinary artist and curator working across analog photography and installation, and textile. Through an ongoing reflection upon oneself and others alike, AlBokhari’s practice documents the complexities of memory and nostalgia. Building a perspective which redefines what it means to belong. Having spent a large part of her life abroad, helped spark her interest in visual ethnographic research. Her bicultural experience underwrites how she both sees and engages with the world around her, how she understands belonging, and where she seeks to build community.
