She holds a Bachelor’s degree (BSc) in Economics and Social Sciences from the WU Vienna, Austria, a Master’s degree (MSc) in Modern and Contemporary European Philosophy from the University of Luxembourg and a Doctorate (Ph.D.) in Multimedia Arts from the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Lisbon , Portugal.

She enjoys the exploration through experimental art practices that fuse analog and digital media, fostering continuous learning while emphasizing the exploration of affect and emotional resonance. The aesthetics of her work vary significantly with each project, evolving in tandem with its development, a quality she greatly appreciates for its inherent variability. Generally, she is interested in affect theory, emotions, feelings, gender studies, neuroaesthetics, and somatic & transdisciplinary art practices.
Lama Hasan
Lama Hasan is a Landscape Architect, Community Design Strategist, and Adjunct Professor at City College New York . She is inspired by the resilience of communities and nature amidst evolving political, social, and environmental landscapes. As a Palestinian-American, her work is rooted in healing across both invisible and literal borders—whether political, cultural, or physical—reconnecting land and people through narratives of resilience, hope, and joy.
Hasan’s practice spans transforming neglected urban sites into vibrant public spaces, restoring cultural heritage river sites threatened by extraction, and designing for educational institutions and community groups focused on youth development, agricultural practices, affordable housing, and public art.
She has contributed to prominent projects such as the National Air and Space Museum, the National Museum of Natural History, and the Owámniyomni project —an Indigenous-centered initiative reimagining Minneapolis’s industrial waterfront. Through design, she engages with histories, ecologies, and communities to shape spaces that acknowledge the past, heal the present, and empower the future.
Hasan holds a Bachelor of Arts in Public and Urban Affairs and a Master of Landscape Architecture from Virginia Tech. She has worked at AECOM and GGN as a Landscape Architect and currently consults with multiple firms such as Urban Ocean Lab and Rock Design Associates, while expanding her research platform. Most recently, she completed a permaculture design course in Terra Alta, Portugal.
