Her films act as constellations: one point unfolds to reveal an entire cosmology of
signs where womanhood, nature and the infinite interact.
In early 2019, she founded her arts and research practice Hybrid Journal.
Using documentary, poetic realism and speculative mythology, her work explores the
notion of home, Afro-Arab hybridity and its futurisms. Dina’s practice revolves around
the mapping out of third spaces where culture has no fixity. Through that space she
employs the desire to belong and to migrate, and the costs involved in both choices.
Dina graduated from both the Australian Film, Television & Radio School (AFTRS) in
Documentary Screen and Goldsmiths University, London (MFA Artists’ Film & Moving
Image). Currently, she is in the post-production phase of her long-term transmedia
project, Blue Lotus.
