Nouf<\/span>\u00a0Aljowaysir<\/strong> is a visual artist whose practice critically examines the role of algorithmic \u201cintelligence\u201d in shaping personal and collective constructions of selfhood and historical knowledge. Working across photography, performance, and moving image, she creates narratives that move between archival materials and digital speculation, questioning how technologies shape and reduce the understanding of identity, memory and particularly non-Western histories.<\/p>\n

Her work has been exhibited internationally at institutions such as Jeu de Paume, Photo Elys\u00e9e, Centre Pompidou, M+ Museum, Gazelli Art House, CPH:DOX, and the Tribeca Film Festival, among others. Her projects have appeared in publications including Fisheye Magazine, Slanted Magazine, and the British Journal of Photography. She has participated in panels and given lectures with Rhizome, KADIST, The Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR), and the TechArt Online Conference at Chung-Ang University. Aljowaysir has also been featured in major media outlets such as Le Monde, BBC Culture, The New York Times, Forbes, and Le Quotidien de l\u2019Art. <\/span>Her film Ana Min Wein?<\/em> (Where Am I From?<\/em>) won the 2023 Lumen Prize for Moving Image and was released by The New York Times Op-Docs series in Ju<\/span>ne 2024.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
