For Art Paris 2025, Hunna Art proposes a dialogue between the works of three artists— Alymamah Rashed, Raya Kassisieh, Razan AlSarraf—whose practices engage critically with contemporary discourses on identity, heritage, and the politics of representation. These artists, each operating within and beyond the boundaries of their respective cultural contexts, destabilize normative frameworks of belonging, form, and embodiment, positioning their works at the intersection of personal and collective memory. Through a plurality of mediums and methodologies, they interrogate contemporary artistic production through the lens of hybridization, revealing the fluidity of origins, gendered constructs, and spatial-temporal boundaries.
Collectively, these three artists articulate a vision of contemporary creation that transcends fixed categories, embodying a form of creolization where identity is not a static essence but an ongoing process of becoming. Through their interrogation of origins, gender, kinship, history, and geography, their works challenge the notion of identity as fixed or monolithic, instead proposing a model of hybridity that embraces complexity, flux, and the inherent contradictions of existence. Their practices—each a critical engagement with the personal, political, and the ontological—offer a sophisticated narrative of cultural and formal syncretism that destabilizes the conventional binaries of self and other, tradition and modernity.
