Mounir EDDIB (1995, he/him) is a Moroccan-Belgian artist born in Waterschei (Genk, Belgium), a diverse working class neighborhood known for its nearby decommissioned coal mines.  As the grandson of a miner and the son of his Amazigh (Berber) mother from the Saharan borderlands, his autobiographic yet universally recognizable art is inspired by intercultural exchange, post-industrial landscapes, and Sahrawi indigenous cosmology, ritual and magic.

As an award-winning painter and through his work at The Building Genk and Bonnefanten Museum's Young Office, Mounir strives to empower marginalized voices and especially youth from various backgrounds through art.
