Nermine Hammam (born 1967) is an Egyptian artist who lives and works in Cairo and London.[1]
She was born in Cairo[1] and later moved to England and then the United States in 1985.[2] She received a BFA in film-making from the Tisch School of the Arts in New York City.
She worked in film with Simon & Goodman and then with Egyptian director Youssef Chahine.[3] She was a production assistant on the 1992 Spike Lee film Malcolm X.[2] Hammam subsequently worked as a graphic designer before moving on to visual arts and photography.[3]
As a female photographer, Hammam said she "entered this traditionally male-dominated space, camera in hand, inverting conventional power relationships to ‘shoot’ the soldiers.
Their response to my presence, as a woman, in their midst, has become part of the ‘facts’ documented in these images.”
