Works by Mona Hatoum:
Mona Hatoum
b 1957 in Beirut (LB); lives in London since 1975. 1970–1972 Beirut University College; 1975–1979 The Byam Shaw School of Art, London; 1979–1981 The Slade School of Art, London. She became widely known in the mid 1980s for a series of performance and video work that focused with a great intensity on the body. Since the beginning of the 1990s her work moved increasingly towards large-scale installation works that aim to engage the viewer in conflicting emotions of desire and revulsion, fear and fascination. Familiar, domestic, every day objects have become part of her artistic language.
