누라 게아게아(Noora Geagea)는 핀란드-레바논 혼혈 예술가로, 비디오와 사진 작업을 중심으로 활동합니다. 그녀는 문화적 태도와 구조, 그리고 개인과 집단의 표현으로서의 몸의 움직임에 관심을 가지고 이야기를 전달합니다. 그녀는 리듬 체조에서부터 장편 영화의 카메라 조수까지 다양한 교육을 받았으며, 2009년에는 런던 예술 대학교(LCF)에서 패션 사진학 석사 학위를 받았습니다. 그녀의 작품은 헬싱키의 Forum Box 갤러리, 핀란드 Mänttä의 Serlachius 박물관 Göstä, 브레멘의 Weserburg 현대미술 박물관, 베를린의 Salon Dahlman, 그리고 York 박물관이 주관한 Aesthetica 아트 프라이즈 전시회 등 다양한 박물관과 갤러리에서 전시되었습니다.

​

Noora Geagea (b. 1981 in Helsinki, Finland) is a Finnish-Lebanese artist who mainly works with video and photography. She is a storyteller with interest in cultural attitudes and structures and body movement, as an expression of the individual and the collective. Her training weaves from competitive rhythmic gymnastics to camera assisting in feature films, with Geagea receiving an MA Fashion Photography degree from LCF, University of the Arts London in 2009. Her works have been shown in various museums and galleries including Forum Box Gallery, Helsinki, the Serlachius Museums Göstä in Mänttä, Finland, Weserburg Museum of Modern Art, Bremen, Salon Dahlman in Berlin and Aesthetica Art Prize exhibition by the York Museums Trust.
