Soukaina Joual

Route: Morocco → U.S.
Travel Plan: Soukaina will take part in an Art Omi residency in New York, where she will conceptualize and produce an artistic work in the framework of the residency’s program. In the process she will expand her artistic practices which she has developed over the years while studying at the National Institute for Fine Arts in Tetouan and participating in numerous art exhibitions in Morocco and abroad.

The grant enables her to travel from Egypt to Jordan to take part in Qayyem, a research program on art curation and exhibition organization. The program aims to create a discussion space for cultural curators in the Arab region, giving Soukaina the opportunity to meet people involved in the arts with diverse backgrounds and expertises.
