Dalia Khalife is a hybrid; an artist, a scenographer, a multidisciplinary designer, and a dancer. She is currently a professor at the Lebanese American University.
She work intuitively, in an interdisciplinary manner, across installation, site-specific interventions, video, objects, painting and performative gestures to produce situations where viewers occupying the same space produce its meaning. Her practice examines psychophysiological happenings as well as elements of spectacle and play within power structures, social events, and rituals, that manifest as primitive moments of ambiguity and shared vulnerability.
Sometimes raw, unexpected humor and absurdist sensibilities appear.
Throughout the work, the unpredictability that derives from collaborations with artists and individuals are an essential part of the work.
