biography




  

Asma Abo Mostafa is a multidisciplinary artist and filmmaker, currently living and working in Amman, Jordan. In her work, she addresses the exploration and analysis of hierarchical structures and social constructs with a focus on cultural and political heritage. Combining new media with traditional crafts, Abo Mostafa creates emotional landscapes that often relate to her own immigrant narrative, having grown up in Europe, as well as her French-Palestinian and indigenous Bedouin identity. Her experience stretches from cinematography and storytelling to sculpture, painting and curation, circling around the creation of a bond between fictional and autobiographical elements. Her passion projects include MUA and styling practices, as well as fictional writing.
