• June 2018
Syrian visual artist Sara Naim describes interconnectivity through her art practice. Using microscopes allows her to shift scales and blur the boundaries between the micro and macro world. She lives and works between London and Paris. Sara Naim is a Syrian visual artist who grew up between Dubai and London. She received her MFA in Fine Art Media at The Slade School of Fine Art, London and works between Paris and London. Through visualising micro-formations, Sara’s practice dissects how proportion shapes our perception and notion of boundary. She explores the physicality of these ‘boundaries’ and its form, with questions like: If borders do not exist on a cellular scale, can we define ‘border’ on a macro scale? Can shape be considered an object in itself? This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
