Zoulikha Bouabdellah is the daughter of Hassen Bouabdellah, a film director and Algerian writer, and Malika Dorbani, ex-head of the Algiers Fine Art Museum. In 1993, while the civil war was underway, her family chose to leaving Algeria and settle in France.
With an interdisciplinary artistic practice, Bouabdellah’s works draw from this diverse and global identity. Deploying modes of subversion and transgression, the artist’s works toy with cultural duality and imbalances, as well as cultural fusion and the ability to transcend borders.
