Kul 3am (NYFWA)

Two .gif format artworks created specifically for the exhibition “Not Your Family WhatsApp.” 

Celebrating the magnificence of “chosen family”, these gifs allow queer people to fearlessly (and humorously) reclaim the sparkly graphics typically reserved for birthdays and religious holidays.

Queer Code
Online Workshops
2020

The online workshop “Queer Code: LGBTIQ+ Language in Tunisia and Beyond" opened dialogue about queer identity and expression in Tunisia.

Through both the local and global lens, led by creative writing and drawing exercises, international participants discussed the local chakchouka of language and lexicon.

Where do certain words come from? How do we use them and why?
