A graduate of the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris and the SVA exchange program in New York in cinematography until 2005, Halida Boughriet is a French and Algerian artist. Playing on the dichotomies between reality and fiction, she works with different artistic languages influenced by the Situationists and Fluxus in her use of performance, photography, and video. At the crossroads of aesthetic, social, and political concerns, her pieces strive to capture the tensions in human relationships highlighted by society. The body is omnipresent, as an instrument of experimental poetic gesture. The artist devotes her research to broadening the deconstruction of stereotypes, with a desire to make visible the subjectivities that have been historically underrepresented in visual culture. His works are held in several prestigious institutions and have been featured in numerous international contemporary art events, including the Centre Pompidou and the Dakar Biennale. His recent contributions include exhibitions at the National Museum of the History of Immigration and the Berggruen Museum in Berlin.
