Dania Shihab <\/a>(Baghdad, 1982) is a transnational artist, musician, curator and emergency doctor based in Barcelona. She holds a Bachelor of Medicine\/Bachelor
of Surgery from the University of Tasmania (Australia) .  

As a sound artist, her practice focuses on identity, borders and displacement based on her experience as a forced migrant. Using samples and field recordings and employing her voice as a tool of cultural and gender agency, she composes long-form electroacoustic pieces.  Since 2014 she has headed the Paralaxe Editions platform, where she releases experimental music and curates performances across Europe.  
In 2023, Paralaxe Editions became an orbiting resident at Hangar, Barcelona.  

She has performed at festivals and venues such as Sonic Acts, S\u00f3nar, Mira, She Makes Noise and Cafe Oto. Shihab has published several musical works related to her experience as a migrant and her cultural identity in transition, including Voz (2022)
and Foreign Body (2023).  In 2024 she completed five-week residency in Providenza, Communities Between Islands (Sardinia\/Corsica and Syros), where she mapped the land-sea interface and explored its impact on the concept of border within migrant communities. She has been selected as an artist of SHAPE+ platform <\/a>for innvovative audiovisual art  \u201824\/25.<\/p>\n<\/external-link-icon><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
