ABOUT
Nurul Huda Rashid is a visual artist and writer, currently pursuing her PhD in Cultural Studies in Asia. Her research interests focus on images, narratives, visual and sentient bodies, feminisms, and the intersections between them within the digital world. Her current research project, Women in War, is a survey of images of women in war, critiqued through lenses of gender and violence, politics of the visual, and the roles of the algorithm and archive as methods. “Phase 3: Notes to Her” (2018), part of her Women in War project was produced and performed as part of a studio residency with Objectifs. She has exhibited previous projects: Hijab/Her (2012), Untitled (2011), and Sufi and the Bearded Man (2010) with Objectifs, NUS Museum, and The Substation. Nurul develops and facilitates Photography and Sex Education workshops with Objectifs and AWARE respectively, and has taught across various tertiary institutions on various subjects. She is also a part of the collective, Bras Basah Open: School of Theory & Philosophy. In her free time, Nurul loves smelling old books and building on her collection of books and plant babies. |
