    Roo Dhissou is a multifaceted artist, researcher, publisher, writer, and PhD candidate whose practice spans sculpture, installation, moving image, craft, and community engaged collaboration. Rooted in care, cultural context, and integrity, her work challenges dominant narratives and reflects deeply on disability, lived experience, social, environmental and material justice. Through inner and outer practices, reflective processes, and ethical research, Roo values relationship-building and intuition, prioritising process over product to create thoughtful, impactful art. Roo see’s justice as a priority in practice and often see’s multiple justice frameworks as entangled.

    Most recently, Roo Dhissou was awarded the Serpentine Galleries’ Support Structures for Support Structures fellowship in 2024, alongside five other UK-based artists; she was also selected for  New Contemporaries 2024; and she was commissioned by the Victoria & Albert Museum to create a new installation for London Design Festival 2025.
