Dinda Fass
Duration
Dinda Fass (she/her) is a multidisciplinary artist and writer based in Musselburgh, East Lothian. She graduated with an MFA in Fine Art from the Frank Mohr Institute in The Netherlands.
Her films have been screened at Glasgow International and Rhubaba as part of Modern Edinburgh Film School programming. Her artist book ‘the island’ is held in the Scottish Poetry Library collection, and her poems are included in an anthology of writing on Nicosia, Cyprus published by Saqi Books.
Fass’s practice spans across photography, works on paper and fabric, artist books, writing, and film, with experiments in these media informing participatory projects. She works using a methodology that Raul Ruiz in The Poetics of Cinema calls ‘ars combinatoria’. She combines materials and methods to establish a playful and open enquiry, encouraging unpredictable dialogues and outcomes between them.
She is currently developing a long-term project titled ‘that there’s been a join’ across several modalities of making which investigates crossing points, boundaries, split zones, dichotomies, portals and joins.
