Hicham Gardaf is a Moroccan artist based in London. He works across photography and film, using them as vehicles to engage people in critical conversations with their immediate environment. A large part of Hicham’s practice delves into transformations of contemporary landscape in relation to time, space, and politics of place. He is particularly drawn to the social spaces we inhabit, such as buildings, streets, and cities, and he researches the practices we apply to these places by reshaping, appropriating, and controlling them.
