Meriam Bousselmi is a writer, theatre-maker, lawyer, researcher and lecturer. In her literature and theatre workshops, she seeks to wake up the participants to the power of art. In 2015, she directed the workshop “Act of Justice” in the frame of Junges DT Herbst camp. Also in 2015, she led the workshop “Weltwand auf Französisch” with a hundred pupils from three Frankfurt schools (Liebigschule, Zügenschule and Lycée français) as part of the German-French Day – Institut franco-allemand de science historiques and socials. In 2019, she took part in the artistic direction of the theatre project “Der Beat der Planeten” offered for 13 children and teenagers from migrant backgrounds in Weinheim. Her work focused on bringing the participants to reflect their own biographies and their perceptions of in/justice through the interpretation of “The Little Prince” story by Saint- Exupéry. In 2020, together with the artist Miriam Lemdjadi, she designed and led a Theatre workshop series on poetry and empowerment, “Nur eine Rose als Stütze”, in Heidelberg and Frankfurt in collaboration with the Freunde Arabischer Kunst und Kultur e.V. and The International Women’s Theatre Festival (IWTF). Based on an interpretation of Hilde Domin’s poetic work and biography, they opened a space of exchange between different generations of women and examined together the female (mis)-(re)-presentations of self, others, home and belonging using a mixture of storytelling and theatre techniques. In 2021, she held a lecture under the title: “The Mergoum Protocol: Typically Tunisian, (A)typically German? On Cross-Cultural Exchange” in the context of CAMP notes on education organised by Documenta fifteen’s Education and Art Mediation Department.
