Dima Srouji

 

 

 

 

Dima Srouji is an architect and visual artist whose work explores the ground as a space rich in cultural weight and potential for collective repair. She focuses on ruptures in the land, places where imaginary liberation is possible, and engages with materials like glass, text, archives, maps, plaster casts, and film to question what cultural heritage and public space mean, particularly in the context of Palestine and the MENA region. Dima’s projects often develop in collaboration with archaeologists, anthropologists, sound designers, and glassblowers, creating evocative objects and emotional companions that shape her practice.

For 3oubour, Dima will explore the relationship between traditional craft and architecture, focusing on Fez’s artisanal heritage and how craftsmanship in zellige mosaic tilework, pottery, and wood carving have shaped the city’s buildings and landscape.
