Winter Camp 2021: The Entire Landsape of You (8 - 11 years)

Bayan Dahdah is a multidisciplinary artist, interested in fusing different mediums to effectively tell stories. Using the tactile touch of physical art (sketchbooks, journals, archives), and the freedom of digital art (animations, illustrations and more) she aims to retell her memories and document her journeys, in the form of a ‘multimedia scrapbook’.

Although hailing from an architectural background, she has dabbled in the fields of photography, graphic design and film. Her experiences in the aforementioned fields have allowed her to hone her narrative as well as technical abilities. With these skills, she teaches ‘visual arts narrative’ workshops, merging the fields of documentary and art. She is also the designer and founder of ‘Sarj’ - a mobile seat made for sketching, with which she gives traveling observational sketching workshops in groups.
She currently works as a freelance graphic designer for various brands, companies and magazines, as well as a frequent collaborator with different photojournalists, artists and documentarians. Some of her clients include National Geographic, UNICEF Jordan, Apple Middle East, Manarat Al Saadiyat and Anthopologie, among others.
