Meriem Bennani Read Bio Collapse
Meriem Bennani Read Bio Collapse
Meriem Bennani (b. 1988, Morocco) lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. Juxtaposing and mixing the language of reality TV, documentaries, phone footage, animation, and high production aesthetics, she explores the potential of storytelling while amplifying reality through a strategy of magical realism and humor. She has been developing a shape-shifting practice of films, sculptures, and immersive installations composed with a subtle agility to question our contemporary society and its fractured identities, gender issues, and the ubiquitous dominance of digital technologies.
