Stroom Invest Interviews / curator Laila Hida

Laila Hida's work explores through individual and collective projects unnegotiated spaces, social practices and the idea of transformation as a constant. Her current project Tout est Temporaire (Everything is Temporary) builds upon her personal (textual and photographic) archive in search for ways of addressing intimacy, resilience, auto-analysis, as markers of the infinitude of an artwork through time and space. In 2013, Hida's artistic and entrepreneurial projects merged when she became founder of le 18, Derb el Ferrane, a multidisciplinary art space based in marrakech. Le 18 emerged as an artist-run initiative, extending her long-term intention to understand and respond to how global tourism shapes local landscapes and their perceptions. Le 18's programs offer a space where artists, curators and researchers can experiment, learn and share knowledge and experiences through exhibitions, talks, gatherings and residencies, in order to build social and creative networks that benefit local communities. She is currently a Soros Art Fellow.

In general, she is interested in methods of creating curatorial ‘frames' to layer different interactions between artists, artworks and the public.
