Mona Hatoum creates installations, sculptures and videos that turn familiar objects uncanny—kitchen utensils enlarged into threats, maps reworked into fragile lattices. Rooted in experiences of displacement, her work meditates on the body’s exposure to systems of control and conflict.
Oscillating between seductive surfaces and latent danger, her charged minimalism asks viewers to navigate spaces where comfort and menace coincide. Hatoum’s practice renders vulnerability palpable, transforming the everyday into sites of tension and care.
