Nadine Khalil is a Dubai-based independent art critic and curator from Lebanon. She collaborates with contemporary artists who engage with the environment, performance and technology. With over a decade of experience across art publishing, curatorial work, and institutional advisory, she has become one of the most versatile and rigorous voices in the contemporary art scene of the Arab world and beyond.
Her curatorial research centers on the body as an expanded site of performance, labor, and technological embodiment, a framework that brings together questions of materiality, subjectivity, and the shifting boundaries between human and machine. She collaborates closely with contemporary artists working critically at the intersection of performance and technology.
During the residency, she will be visiting artists' studios, meeting fellow art professionals, and engaging with the local cultural scene, deepening the cross-cultural research that have long been central to her practice.
