Annabel Daou’s paper-based constructions, audio/video works, and performances explore the expressive possibilities of ordinary language and reveal intimacies between individual and collective experience. Daou suspends, carves out, or records the language of daily life: from the ordinary or mundane to the intimately personal and urgently political. In her performance work she explores questions of trust, intimacy, and the operations of power.
Daou was born and raised in Beirut and lives in New York. Possibilities of Repair, a monograph of her work was published by Distanz Publishing Berlin in 2025.
