Nora Sayyad (b. 1991) is a Finnish-Palestinian photographer, artist, and visual reporter whose experimental lens pushes the boundaries of documentary and fictional storytelling. Born in Sweden and based in Helsinki, she weaves culture, identity, and intersectionality into bold narratives that challenge perception and center empathy. Holding a Master’s degree from Aalto University, Sayyad’s work spans human rights, wellbeing, and the complex liminal spaces of lived experience.
