Monday Lectures at the Faculty of Fine Art, Music and Design, University of Bergen is pleased to invite you all to the public lecture “Moving Images — of, from and to Palestine” by artist Shuruq Harb.
In this artist talk, Shuruq Harb will share with us stories of her journeys as she follows the circulation of images — of, from and to Palestine through a presentation and discussion of two of her artworks The Keeper and The White Elephant. The talk will reflect on the artist's use of found images through techniques of montage and editing, stitching the personal with the historical through a study of pop culture and escapism.
Shuruq Harb is a multidisciplinary artist, educator, filmmaker, and writer based in Ramallah, Palestine. On the occasion of the Busan Biennale 2024, she presented the first iteration of Off You Shore Paper Trail, a collaborative film project with Federica Bueti which looks at modern maritime histories, piracy, and mobility in the Mediterranean Sea. Her latest essay An Hour Ahead and One Day Behind was published in kyklàda.press’s latest edition entitled Machine Paralysis, 2025. Shuruq is a contributing faculty to PRAXIS: fluent’s Study Programme 2025. She is performing a reworked version of In the Presence of Absence at BEK Symposium Nov, 2025 and her exhibition Interrupted Futures opens at Kunstnernes Hus in Oslo in 2026.
