38:. Working primarily in photography, she has undertaken explorations of contemporary Egyptian urban life, including Cairo's architectural features, public/private spaces, middle-class identity, and the larger urban environment. Her artistic practice moves from formalist explorations of photography as a medium to genre-bending visual essays of her surroundings in Egypt. Her practice is anchored in questioning what it means to live and experience place and time, through recording, describing, and reflecting on this experience via photography, film, texts and conversations. El Nemr's artistic process incorporates formal image-making techniques with contemporary artistic practices, and it strives to integrate various forms of collaborations in different constellations, such as trans-disciplinary collaborations and alternative pedagogical practices among many others. She is a co-founder of the Contemporary Image Collective (CIC), an institution founded in 2004 in Downtown Cairo, whose programming includes lectures, screenings, and workshops that explore the changing role of photography in contemporary visual culture. El Nemr remains an active board member of CiC.
