about

queer French-Arab writer & photographer,

My work mainly focuses on the body, its ever-expanding capacities, its frustrating limits, its pulsions, its reservations. It is to me a lab rat, a case, a researchee. I am keen on exploring subjects which extract vulnerability from body –sexual pleasures & traumas, chronic pains, queerness, accumulated baggage from difficult upbringings, religious & cultural inculcations.
My wish is to provoke uncomfortable emotions through raw, straightforward descriptions, or at the contrary, to depict raw, straightforward scenes with descriptions of uncomfortable emotions. 
Most things brought up in my writings do not serve only one purpose; the feelings, images, reflections are plural. Though meaning found within my artwork belongs wholly to the reader, I believe it is a crucial piece of information to keep in mind for a richer understanding. 
Sex is never just sex. Food is never just food. Pain is never just pain. Tenderness is only ever tenderness. Teeth will be teeth.
