Noor Ghazal is a Lebanese-”Canadian” interdisciplinary artist, cultural curator and community organizer based in the Unceded xwməθkwəy̓ əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) lands. Noor’s research and art practice is rooted in Arabfuturism and exploring ways of future building through the retrieving and revival of stories and histories as methods of deciphering and speculating about pasts, presents, and futures. When Noor is not art making, she is organizing and producing a diverse array of events that showcase MENA/SWANA arts and culture. Noor’s work focuses on supporting local artists and bringing MENA/SWANA artists to so-called “Vancouver” from around the globe with the hope of creating more visibility and building community.
