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.
