About the artist

Roua Bida — Acrylic On Canvas, 100 × 100 cm (representative image)
Roua Bida

Tunisia, b. 1988

Roua Bida, born in Sfax, Tunisia, in 1988, is a visual artist, director, photographer, and feminist activist. She pursued her studies in visual and plastic arts at the Higher Institute of Fine Arts in Tunis, where she honed her skills in photography and cinema. Bida's artistic practice is deeply intertwined with her activism, focusing on themes of gender equality and queer rights.

In 2015, she became actively involved with organizations advocating for equal human rights, including the Mawjoudin Association for Equality and the Chouf Feminist Association. Demonstrating her commitment to these causes, Bida founded the Honna Collective, a platform dedicated to amplifying the voices of women and queer artists in Tunisia. Her work has been showcased in various exhibitions, notably at the Thessaloniki Queer Arts Festival in 2020, where she presented under the name Rû.

Bida's contributions to both the art world and activism have positioned her as a significant figure in Tunisia's contemporary art scene. Through her multidisciplinary approach, she continues to challenge societal norms and advocate for marginalized communities, using art as a powerful tool for social change.

Acrylic

A fast-drying, water-based paint developed in the twentieth century. Versatile and vivid, it can mimic oil or watercolor and suits bold, flat color — a favourite of many contemporary artists across the region.

Expressionism

Art that prioritizes emotion and inner experience over realistic depiction, using distortion, bold color, and energetic mark-making. In the region it gave modern artists a language for memory, displacement, and identity.
