Selwa Abd a.k.a Bergsonist is a Moroccan-born artist and composer based in New York City. Her prolific and thought-provoking output challenges critical questions surrounding the future of technology, her own fragmented personal identity shaped by the complexities of post-colonial urban environments, and the influence of virtual realities on contemporary society. She is a recipient of the NYFA x Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment Women’s Fund Grant (2024), the Jerome Hill Artist Alternate Award (2023), an ISSUE Project Room Artist-In-Residence (2022), and the Harvestworks’ Technology Immersion Program Fellowship (2022). She is also the founder of the community resource Pick Up The Flow and has been an NTS Radio resident since 2018. Her latest album Maghreb was featured on NPR’s list of the best albums of 2024
