Lara Ziyad

For Lara Ziyad, having been born and raised in Riyadh as the daughter of Palestinian parents means that political conflicts have determined her life from the day she was born. For 15 years, the artist worked as an architect and is currently studying art at the University of the Arts in Berlin. Her eclectic work includes collages, land art, video installations and photographs. It is about identity, the politicisation of the female body and her cultural background. Ziyad lives and works in Berlin.
