Bint Mbareh
The co-founder of Palestine's iconic Exist Festival, sound researcher Bint Mbareh challenges the logic of settler colonialism with her vital work, whether it's live performance, radio or installation. She's moved by the myth of water scarcity and the power of communal voices to summon rain, and examines the parallels between waves of water and sound waves, wondering how these phenomena might relate to the washing away of the various borders - between bodies, states and tenses - that surround us. Mbareh's activism and art is steeped in Palestinian ways of knowing, learned from communities who retain a deep interdependent relationship with their environment.
