​Salma Ahmad Caller is a British-Egyptian artist whose practice involves creating an imagery of body and identity across profound cultural divides, contradictory mythologies, processes of exoticisation. The legacy of colonialism is a cross-generational transmission of ideas, traumas, bodies and misconceptions. With a Masters in Art History and Theory, a background in pharmacology, and teaching cross-cultural perspectives at Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford, she is now an independent artist and writer.
