Zineb Andress Arraki

Zineb Andress Arraki was born on February 4, 1984
in Casablanca, Morocco.

She grew up in Casablanca before studying architecture in Paris. At l'Ecole Spéciale d'Architecture, she met her mentor and professor, Lionel Lemire, who introduced her "to the observation of irregularities in the World," she said. This encounter was the beginning of an inquest that would refine her position in the world she lives in. Her thesis "Et si le noir fabriquait l'architecture? "(What would happen if blacks practiced architecture?) is the genesis of her overall approach. In it she defines her own frames of reference.
Mobilogy, questioning the usual is a daily experience. Using her BlackBerry
and Facebook, she has been posting a triptych every day since 2008; as if
she is telling a story in three pictures. This original approach is intended to
question the usual, the trivial, the everyday. To incite curiousity.
As for Zineb Andress Arraki's traditional photographs, they are born from
her life encounters, from the situations that she must face. She invents her
own rules to share her feelings, shaping her approach and determining her
uniqueness. Her work combines architecture, photography, sculpture and
video.
