AHLAM SHIBLI

Palestinian photographer Ahlam Shibli focuses, in a documentary aesthetic, on the contradictory implications of the notion of home. Her work deals with the loss of home and the fight against that loss, but also with restrictions and limitations that the idea of home imposes on individuals and communities marked by repressive identity politics. Ahlam Shibli will direct the two-week course The notion of subject matter from 18 to 30 July 2016.
Currently, until Sunday, ediciones originales present books and multiples by Ahlam Shibli at ARCO Madrid. Her work also is currently on view within the group exhibition Alive in the dead sea at Darat Al Funun in Amman.
