About me
a creative who lets her mind's eye roam free As an interdisciplinary artist, filmmaker and writer, I see my work as a playground for the verbal, visual and the visceral. My practice is concerned with exploring eclectic sources and aesthetics to conceptualise and produce cinematic, immersive and artistic experiences within diverse contexts. My work crosses directing, production design, installation art and time-based media. I hold an MA in Performance Design from Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London (2012-2014). In 2010, I completed a Postgraduate Degree in Filmmaking from The London Film Academy. Having lived between London and Lebanon throughout my life, I enjoy depicting the strange from the mundane while questioning and distorting nature and reality. With a curious nature and a playful seriousness, I continually seek and find expressive ways to create unique visions and tales.
