Achref Marzouk

Using light as an artistic medium, I alternated between photography, the video projector and the presentation of images, while adding movement to elements within the image. At the same time, this work is exhibited, and the viewer can interact with it through a frame. They can observe the work and interact with it, creating their own image.

Achref Marzouk is a visual arts graduate and a passionate photographer who loves exploring the world around him. Over the past five years, he has actively participated in numerous artistic and cultural events and workshops in Tunisia. He has also had the opportunity of sharing his work with the public during several group exhibitions, which allowed him to connect with other like-minded individuals. Street photography has become his true passion, a form of expression that allows him to capture the essence of daily life and tell stories through his photographs. For him, each photographic outing is an adventure added to his constantly-evolving journey. Achref believes that photography is a way of life, a means of connecting with the world and its essence, questioning his own existence, and sharing his unique vision with others.

SEE DJERBA YOUNG MASTERS

This year’s YOUNG MASTERS have been prepared for the first public art activities in a boot camp in Gabes in cooperation with DANCERS CITIZENS SOUTH. The long-term cooperation with DANCERS CITIZENS SOUTH — home in Gabes — and SEE DJERBA Media Art Project — located in Houmt Souk — is a pioneering initiative to address the imbalance of art and culture opportunities between Tunisia’s capital and its southern regions. Both organizations foster the networking of art and culture organizations in the South, create opportunities for artistic expression, develop talent and resources, and promote cultural decentralization. They feature transdisciplinary collaborations in media art, dance, and music, develop public art projects to revitalize southern urban spaces and provide mentoring and funding programs for emerging southern artists. In various co-operations, they seek to nurture and amplify southern Tunisia’s unique voices and creativity, where art and culture initiatives have historically been less prevalent. It nurtures a thriving arts scene in the south, celebrating local heritage while embracing contemporary forms of expression.
