Muriel Enjalran researches the artist’s relationship to public property and examines how these practices encourage a rethinking of art making and aesthetics. Enjalran also has been developing a collaborative network that brings together artists from Portugal, Brazil and Morocco, where she also regularly curates projects for L’appartement 22, an independent art space in Rabat, Morocco. Since 2006, Enjalran has worked at the d.c.a – the French association for the development of centres d’art – where she has helped coordinate a structure of 50 art spaces across France that enables connections between the spaces and other European institutions. Enjalran was an Associate Curator for the first edition of the Biennale de Belleville, Paris, in 2011; and for the 3rd Arts in Marrakech International Biennale, in 2009.
