Mona Ali explores, through the work of the Women and Memory Forum (WMF), the relations between the ability to write one’s body as a woman and the deconstruction of stereotypes of women’s and men’s sexualities.
On the basis that folk tales contribute to the construction of the collective public memory, the Women and Memory Forum endeavours to reconstruct representations of women in popular memory by re-writing and re-telling stories from the One Thousand and One Nights.
