Adelita Husni-Bey is an artist and pedagogue whose practice is grounded in anarcho-collectivism, theatre and legal anthropology. Through workshops and artworks rooted in noncompetitive pedagogical models, she engages a broad spectrum of participants, including activists, architects, jurists, schoolchildren, poets, actors and urbanists. Her practice emphasises collective experimentation and critical reflection on sociopolitical systems and structures. The artist’s work has been exhibited at various institutional and noninstitutional venues, including the Italian Pavilion at the 57th Venice Biennale (2017). As a Vera List Center Fellow (2020–2022), she investigated the social transformations prompted by pandemics through a purpose-built maze structure that served as a dynamic space for workshops and lectures. For Sharjah Biennial 16, she collaborated with researcher Shehrazade Mahassini on a film installation that explores water extraction, infrastructure and the politics of adaptability, addressing environmental crises shaped by contemporary economic systems and their histories.
