Selwa Abd (Bergsonist)

Selwa Abd is a multi-disciplinary artist, musician & designer living in NYC (originally from Morocco, North Africa). Under the guise of Bergsonist, she uses a variety of media to investigate social resonance through divergent conceptual aesthetics (minimalism and musique concrète to name a few). Through her work, she explores notions of identity, memory, and social politics.

She is the founder of the community resource Pick Up The Flow. She hosts a monthly music show on NTS Radio and a podcast featuring inspiring creatives from the PUTF community and beyond. She holds a BFA in Communication Design from The New School.  She has performed at Basilica Hudson, Issue Project Room, Fridman Gallery, Dartmouth College and Boston Museum Of Fine Arts to name a few.
