Naeem Mohaiemen
Naeem Mohaiemen is a historian and visual artist working in Dhaka and New York. He uses film, photography, mixed media sculptures, and essays to research borders, wars, and belonging. Project themes have been described as “revolutionary past meaningful in the sudden eruption of a revolutionary present” (Kaelen Wilson-Goldie, Bidoun), “ultimately more illuminating than Jacques Ranciere’s microscopic examinations of the utopian kernels” (Ben Davis, ArtNet), and “ever on the verge of collapsing into abstraction, their materiality performs the indeterminacy of the event they record” (Sarinah Masukor, West Space). Naeem is also a Ph.D. student in Historical Anthropology at Columbia University, and a 2014-2015 Guggenheim Fellow (film).
