Hun er uddannet i statskundskab fra Johann Wolfgang Goethe Universitet i Frankfurt/Main, underviser på Eidgenössische Hochschule (ETH) i Zürich og er gæsteprofessor ved Kunstakademiet i Stuttgart.

About the artist:
Nora Al-Badri is a multi-disciplinary and conceptual media artist with a German-Iraqi background. Her works are research-based as well as paradisciplinary and post-colonial. She lives and works in Berlin. She graduated in political sciences at Johann Wolfgang Goethe University in Frankfurt/Main and is a lecturer at the Eidgenössische Hochschule (ETH) in Zurich and a guest professor at the Academy of Arts in Stuttgart.
