Bio: Oreet Ashery’s work has explored community and mutual care through the lens of class and gender, often in multi-platform projects that combine video, performance, photography, sound, assemblage, textile and writing. Their practice crosses established arts institutions worldwide and grassroots social contexts. Ashery won the Film London Jarman Award in 2017 and in 2020 was a Turner Prize Bursary recipient, (replacing the Turner Prize during a pandemic year) for her influential work Revisiting Genesis, a 12-episode online film on friendship, illness, death, grief and digital legacy. In 2022 Ashery was commissioned by KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin, to produce Selfish Road, a partly autobiographical film that journeys through highways in and around Jerusalem.
