  علاء البنان

  Alaa El-Bannan is this year's Arts and Culture co-fellow, Space lab director, and a previous CILAS student. She is currently working on developing her interdisciplinary art practice focusing on creative writing and drawing as a form. She studied media and mass communication, and had worked as a copywriter, an editor, and in the NGO sector for a while. Alaa's now interested in consciousness as a theme, and in experimentation as an approach. She believes in acceptance as a way to deal with the random, chaotic nature of reality, and believes in imagination as a way to expand her life experience. She refuses the distinction between reality and imagination as for her both are two faces of one thing and both feed each other. She daydreams and practices martial arts.

  دعاء شاهين

  Doaa Shahin currently works as a co- fellow for the natural science field of study at CILAS and as a director of the media lab. She also works as a part-time translator for Huffington post. She had graduated from the faculty of mass communication and had worked in various journalistic institutions. She uses writing and photography as tools to express and communicate with herself and the other. Doaa is a person who never stops asking questions, and making weird connections. What makes her extremely curious nature embraceable is her chilled flexible attitude toward her wonderings. She is a philosophy enthusiast who brings abstract concepts and theories back to the everyday life and in relation to the human self. Doaa usually challenges her comfort zones. She is currently interested in exploring how our bodies can be a tool to express and connect, and how that could be different than using verbal language.
