Nida Sinnokrot is an artist and educator whose work explores how various forms of power and bias are embedded in dominant narrative structures and attendant articulations of time and space. Working across film, video, photography, sculpture, installation, and agriculture, Nida seeks to expose and cannibalize—through tactile, tactical, and material acts of technical and conceptual detournement—various technologies of control that give rise to shifting social, political, and environmental instabilities. Nida is a cofounder of Sakiya – Art | Science | Agriculture, an international residency program and research platform in the West Bank village of Ein Qinya, and a faculty member of MIT’s Art, Culture, and Technology Program (ACT) in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Nida received his BA from the University of Texas at Austin and an MFA from Bard College and participated the Whitney Museum of American Art Independent Study Program in 2001. Nida is a Rockefeller Foundation Media Arts fellow (2002) and Akademie Schloss Solitude fellow (2012–15), and has received support from the Merz Akademie, the Paul Robeson Fund, and the Qattan Foundation, among others. Recent solo shows include “Nida Sinnokrot” at Kunst-Station Sankt Peter, Cologne (2019–20); “Expand Extract Repent Repeat” at Carlier | Gebauer in Berlin (2018–19); and “Exquisite Rotation” at KIOSK in Ghent (2018).
