Mohamed Harb (b. 1979, Gaza) is a Gaza-based artist and filmmaker, who has been active in the visual arts scene since 1995, specializing in photography, video art, and documentary filmmaking. A graduate of Al-Najah University (2001) and the School of Visual Arts in Marrakech (2011–2015). He is the founder of the International Video Art Festival in Gaza and has held eleven solo exhibitions and participated in over sixty group shows worldwide. He has also received multiple grants and awards, including prizes at the Arab-European Festival in Germany.

Harb continues to live under the harsh conditions of Gaza, where his art is deeply influenced by the gray reality shaped by the Israeli occupation. He portrays this through color and his films. His film Repatriation Room was part of the Palestinian Pavilion at the 2019 Cannes International Film Festival, where it was nominated for the Robert Bosch International Prize for “Best Documentary Project on Human Rights.” In the past three years, he has worked on projects such as A Biography of Gaza, which has been screened in several Arab and European cities.

At the start of the war, Mohamed and his family were displaced to the south after his family’s and sister’s houses were bombed, resulting in the loss of 10 family members, including his sister and her children. He later returned to Gaza, where he now lives in a tent after his studio was destroyed in an airstrike, leading to the loss of many of his artworks.
