Raghad Resres (b. 1996) is a Jordanian research-based artist of Palestinian descent. She holds an MFA in Fine Arts from the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. And a BA in Literature and Cultural Studies from Hashemite University, Jordan.
Raghad operates through feminist spatial and decolonial practices. Her work deeply engages with the politics of bodily and sensory experiences, examining how they are shaped by and respond to social and political legacies of refuge and colonization.
Her artistic practice sits at the intersection of conceptual art, theatre, and performance, For Raghad, as a research-based artist, each project has a research process that determines the specific methodologies, media, and mediums to be used in accordance with the specific sense of the research inquiry.
Her art has found a platform in multiple international and national venues, including Hammarkullen Konsthall (2024), GIBCA Extended (2023), The KUNO Biennial (2023), Dar Art Fair (2022), Micro Galleries (2020), and refugee camps.
