SEPADPod With Mariam Mabrouk

Richardson Institute

On this episode of SEPADPod, Simon speaks with Mariam Mabrouk, an Egyptian artist and former Lancaster University student, who is acting as our first ‘artist in residence’. Mariam has produced some amazing pieces of art for forthcoming SEPAD publications and you can see her work on instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/studiomabrouk/ On this episode Simon and Mariam talk about artistic influences, the importance of urban environments, the 2011 uprisings in Egypt, Mariam's work 'hanged' (https://www.instagram.com/p/BtfrCkEg966/) and her new piece 'entangled', which is on the cover of Simon's new book. This is a little bit different, but a fascinating conversation!
