Ahmed Alaqra is an artist and a curator whose practice interrogates the aesthetics of power embedded in everyday life. Working across various mediums and formats, his work attempts to disrupt dominant narratives that shape collective perception. Rooted in unmaking and unlearning, his curatorial and artistic methodologies foreground these acts as tools for reconstructing narrative.

Ahmed has participated in and curated numerous exhibitions across Europe and the Arab world. His latest exhibition, I Will Write Our Will Above the Clouds, toured multiple cities. He also co-curated Salt-Kissed at Hayy Jameel in Jeddah and served as guest curator for several exhibitions at the Palestinian Museum. His work has been exhibited at institutions and galleries including the Palestinian Museum, Al Qattan Foundation, Dar Jacir, ICD Brookfield Place in Dubai, and Spore Initiative in Berlin, among many others. He was recently nominated for the Art Here 2025 prize by Louvre Abu Dhabi and Richard Mille.
