Laetitia El Hakim was born in Byblos, Lebanon in 1993. She is a multidisciplinary artist who studied architecture, photography, and dance. Laetitia’s practice mainly explores traditions, rituals, and memory. She has been fascinated with stories since she was a child, her work often revolves around the art of visual storytelling. With photography as her primary medium, she explores socio-political dynamics that affect the way Lebanon and its culture are shaped through an anthropological perspective. Her practice often takes a performative aspect in its execution, oscillating between reality and fiction.
Al-Sarab Dance Company (ASDC) is located in the oldest city in the world: Byblos, Lebanon. Just like its name states, Al-Sarab – Arabic for Mirage – aims to transport its audience in to a world where everything is possible; where everyone can dance, including its audience. ASDC is known for its audience-interactive performances, as well as its multi-disciplinary collaborations with artists from around the world. The company has been hard at work since 1991 when it was first established by its founder and artistic director Nadra Assaf (PhD). Since then, it has grown to showcase the artistic excellence and innovative choreography of all its members. Photo Mourane Matar
