Yasmine Eid-Sabbagh Photography
Yasmine Eid-Sabbagh has a background in photography. She combines research, conversational, image and (meta)archival practices to reflect on the agency of photographs and notions of collectivity and power.
One of her long-term projects explores the impossibilities of representation, through a negotiation process around a potential digital archive assembled in collaboration with inhabitants of Burj al-Shamali, a Palestinian refugee camp near Tyr, Lebanon.
In 2018, she received her PhD from the Institute of Art Theory and Cultural Studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. Eid-Sabbagh has been a member of the Arab Image Foundation (http://www.arabimagefoundation.org) since 2008. For her collaboration with Rozenn Quéré, Vies possibles et imaginaires (Editions Photosynthèses, Arles, France, 2012), she received the 8th Vevey International Photography Award in 2011, and the Arles Discovery Award in 2013. She was a 2018/2019 fellow at BAK, basis voor actuele kunst, Utrecht.
