Born in 1987 in Casablanca. She currently lives and works in Paris.

Randa Maroufi is a graduate of the National Institute of Fine Arts, Tetouan, Morocco (2010) and the School of Fine Arts, Angers, France (2013). She also earned a diploma from Le Fresnoy – Studio National des Arts Contemporains, Tourcoing, France (2015). Randa Maroufi has been Artist Member of Academy of France in Madrid at Casa de Velázquez in 2017 – 2018.

Belonging to the generation that grew up in an era dominated by image, she collects them with as much eagerness as suspicion, and ceaselessly questions their veracity. She prefers to put her ambiguous fictions in the service of reality, and the field of her experimentation encompasses the occupation of public space and gender issues, of which she highlights the founding mechanisms.

Her recent group exhibitions include : Biennale de Lyon, France (2022); Museo de Reina Sofía, Spain (2021); New Museum, NY (2020); MA Museum, Quebec (2019); Biennale de Dakar, Senegal (2018); Sharjah Biennial, Lebanon (2017); International Film Festival Rotterdam, The Netherlands (2016); African Photography Meeting, Bamako, Mali  (2015); the Marrakech Biennale, Morocco (2014), etc.

She has received many awards for her film Le Park (2015), and Bab Sebta (2019).
