About the book

Negotiating Conflict in Lebanon: Bordering Practices in a Divided Beirut (Bloomsbury, 2019) is the culmination of Mohamad's practice-led research project; a nine-year investigation into sectarian and political struggles in Lebanon.

It employs art processes to investigate everyday borders as immaterial processes and practices. The book considers how artistic research can itself be seen as a form of a critical spatial practice and, in particular, a bordering practice.
