Rima Rezaiguia. Annaba, 1985
She works in parallel as an architect, runs a design office, and develops her work as a visual artist. Born in Annaba in 1985, Rima Rezaiguia joined the Nord-Pas de Calais School of Plastic Arts and graduated with a DNAP in 2016. She has participated in several exhibitions in Annaba, Algiers, and Marseille.
The back and forth between architecture and plastic art is significant of her approach in general, which always moves from one point to another, from one thing to another. Thus, she seeks the passage between the past, the present, and the future; between modernity and tradition; between the finite and the infinite; between evil and good. She tries to show the continuity between the works she produces by exposing the transparency of this approach and translating, materializing these ideas into geometric forms.
The world, in her view, is a three-dimensional space in the shape of a prism, where each face gives a new breath, a new life. Each face is the mirror of another world, yet the world is a whole, absolute and spiritual.
Her artistic practice is multifaceted. She employs drawing, painting, sculpture, video, installation, and engraving.
