Algeria, Gennevilliers, Gaza or Philadelphia: despite borders, the contemporary artist is interested in communities, cultures, those who resist colonial domination and build their history in adversity.

Through his works, Mohamed Bourouissa recounts these troubled lives, these tensions, these moments of joy and poetry, this past that resurfaces behind every window, this imposed silence and these cries from the heart... Sensitive to others, to his environment, the artist immortalizes and transmits, while seeking to extricate himself from these narratives that can darken minds and intoxicate the future.
