Lynn Kodeih
Lynn Kodeih is a Lebanese-Canadian artist-researcher, based in Tiohtià:ke/Mooniyang/Montréal since 2020. Focused on the interweaving of art and politics, her practice is at the crossroads of textuality and auto-theory, video and installation. She is interested in notions of territory and borders from a decolonial perspective. After literary and theatrical studies in Beirut (DES - Lebanese University, BA and MA - Université Saint-Joseph), Kodeih obtained a master's degree in visual and media arts from UQAM in 2023. Alongside her artistic practice, she collaborates as a programmer and lecturer with several universities and art institutions since 2009 (Leonard & Bina Ellen Gallery; ALBA; USJ among others). Kodeih is co-founder of polycephaly.net, a platform for research and conversation around art and politics.
Her work has been shown in Canada and internationally, including at La Galerie de l'UQAM (Montreal), SAW Gallery (Ottawa), Hamar Kunstbanken Performance Festival (Norway), Rotterdam Film Festival (Netherlands), Transart Triennial Berlin (Germany), Homeworks - Ashkal Alwan, Beirut Art Center and Beirut Art Fair (Lebanon).
