Asma Khoory (b. Dubai, 1994) graduated in 2017 with a BFA in Visual Arts and Curatorial Practices from Zayed University, and in 2018 she was part of the fifth cohort of The Salama Bint Hamdan Emerging Artist Fellowship in partnership with the Rhode Island School of Design. In 2022 Asma completed her MA in Anthropology and Museum Practice from Goldsmiths, University of London.
Her work has been exhibited locally and internationally at Art Dubai, Meem Gallery, Warehouse 421, Al Serkal Avenue, Jameel Arts Center, Nieuw Dakota in Amsterdam, and Southeast Missouri State University in the US.
She investigates reality, memory, and narrative and how they often merge or contradict one another through materials, and she is interested in the intersection of personal memory versus public memory. Asma's artistic practice revolves around themes of manufactured time, human relations and conversations, hazy dreams, and collective memory through the mediums of painting and mixed media.
