Profile

Sarri Elfaitouri is an architect, artist, and curator based in Libya. Sarri holds a Bachelor’s degree in Architecture and a Master’s degree in Urban Design as a Fulbright scholar. His work is centred on an interdisciplinary synthesis between architecture, art, and the social sciences, dedicated to generating a critical attitude towards the built environment and to investigating contemporary socio-cultural issues, identities and ideologies in the city. His works manifest as: research, theoretical architectural projects, art curation, and collage art.

Sarri is the founder of the TAJARROD Architecture and Art Foundation, a research design practice aiming to critically reinvent the architectural and artistic discipline in Libya and beyond. He has published theoretical projects and essays online, and curated/participated in several exhibitions locally and abroad.
