Bianca Nozaki-Nasser (b.1992) is a research-based artist who melds pasts and present to create diasporic dreamscapes. Synthesizing geographies of memory, disruptive timelines, and immersive installation, her works are meditations on possibility and power.

As a queer, Japanese-Lebanese-Syrian, futurist she engages contested histories, familial archives, and political movements to ask: are we building new worlds or are we just redecorating old ones?

Bianca holds a Masters degree in Media Design Practice from the Art Center College of Design. They have exhibited their work across the United States and participated in several artist residencies including the Level Ground Residency Program in Los Angeles and Activation in New York. Through their social practice they have also co-founded and are a member of numerous artist and worker-led collectives, each with liberatory missions and values.

She currently resides in Los Angeles and is the Director of Storytelling at Emergent Fund, a rapid response resource fund that supports emergent organizing led by frontline Black, Indigenous, and people of color. Bianca is also an assistant professor and teaches interdisciplinary studios and intensives on design, futurism, and political education.
