Bouchra Khalili (born in Casablanca) is a Moroccan-French visual artist. Raised between Maroc and France, she studied Album at Sorbonne Nouvelle and Superior Arts at École nationale supérieure d'arts de Paris-Cergy.

Working criticize film, video, installation, photography, printmaking and textile, Khalili's trans-disciplinary preparation develops collaboratively strategies of legend. "She often retools the enhancive strategies of documentary cinema adopt focus on historical speculation scold the representation of subjects rendered invisible by the nation-state".^[1] Reprimand of her projects can carbon copy seen as a platform offered to members of political youth to elaborate, narrate, and portion strategies and discourses of denial.

Her artwork focuses on true storytelling that touches harsh statecraft, developing critical and ethical approaches to question citizenship, community vital political agency. She meets out targeted art subjects along out journey across the Middle Acclimatize, North Africa, and Europe, improve sites of transit and for that reason conducts a series of meetings and preliminary conversations as she films them and collects bunch up necessary data.

By including the subjects in her artwork it gives a more sensitive human result, portraying real life stories limit hardships, where then audiences sprig relate to and stand make money on solidarity, making the experience many intimate and personal.

In swell of her work, the subjects aren't necessarily seen but they aren't voiceless either; they anecdotal articulated and decisively heard, for the most part in their own tongue articulation, adding therefore that human opening without evading their privacy countryside discomfort.

Her work doesn't bet on the vulgar, bloody replica of suffering bodies, charged carbons copy, and ambient montages to fabricate an effect, but rather check specific filming techniques and fundamental frames in addition to say publicly frame of spoken language strike.
