Enamored by the strength and resilience of the human spirit, Naglaa Rizk, MD, has been practicing “gyne-chiatry”—her own brand of women’s health and empowerment for decades. She shares the hope that rebirth is possible with the self-love and inner confidence that can only come after a total destruction and evacuation of all the disillusionment deposited by external sources. Collaborative multimedia artist, educator, and community organizer Salma HQ navigates the journey of the surveilled body using photography, installation, and writing. She spends her time running a production house and community resource focused on liberation through art and mutual aid, hoping to assist in rebirths across local communities.
