Through photographic work in Morocco, Olfa Rachdi explores her French-Moroccan cultural hybridity, working within her interpretation of the “Third Space”.

Theory of the Third Space

For Rachdi, it is a space that emerges when oriental and occidental cultures interact, challenging mono-cultural identities and allowing for the reinterpretation of their imagery.

Conceptualization

In “Mabayn Athnayn, Inbetween,” Rachdi distorts her photography of Morocco and screen prints it onto leather, layering them to display the intersectional lens of her mixed cultural heritage. In expressing her full nuanced self, it explores the complexities of identity in contemporary society.
