ARTIST BIO

Nurul Atiqah Zaidi is a Singaporean interdisciplinary-performance artist whose movement practice emerges from embodied research.

Working through the Malay female body, she engages the body as archive and explores performance as an epistemic methodology. She has performed in Singapore, London, and Indonesia, and is currently in her final year pursuing a BA (Hons) in Fine Arts at Nanyang Academy of Fine Art. Atiqah holds a Diploma in Art Teaching from the same alma mater.

​

Atiqah is apart of the academy’s Talent Development Programme, has received multiple Dean’s List Awards, and served as Lead Curator of her cohort from 2025–2026.

Atiqah runs 'She Her You and I', an intersectional Feminist space dedicated to spotlighting emerging women creatives in Singapore, and spearheads 'Perempuan in Print', an independent publication focused on dissecting print culture, body politics, gendered media and nusantaran women-archives.

Her works and performances have been presented at NUS Museum, Objectifs, Art Outreach, Studio Plesungan, and P7:1SMA. Atiqah has been featured in Her World Singapore (print edition, October 2025 online article, January 2026)
