AYA BSEISO AND REEM MARJI
Residents of October 2022
Aya Bseiso (b. Tunis, 1995) holds a degree in Community, Environment and Development from Pennsylvania State University. Her practice is research based relying on text and sampling of archival material. Bseiso at the moment is currently interested in initiating projects that look at landscapes and geography probing possible life futures. She seeks to experiment with mediums that allow her to engage, build relationships, and embed oneself in distant ecosystems—traveling between and traversing borders—on multiple levels.
Reem Marji is an architect and curator. She holds a master's degree in curatorial practices and cultural studies from the European Institute of Design – Venice. She has worked as part of Darat al Funun - Khaled Shoman Foundation’s curatorial team. She recently participated in the curation of "After Hours"; an artistic residency program that explores the possibilities or limitations of cultural institutions, in addition to the co-curation of the exhibition trilogy ; “The Internet of Things: Another Possible World,” “Measuring Life: Notes toward Impossible Exchange,” and “Postcolonial Ecologies.” Marji is interested in artistic and cultural production and its intersection with the current economic and political.
