Asma Kabadeh (she/her)

Asma Kabadeh (she/her) is a Creative Producer and Filmmaker whose work bridges creative storytelling with community spacemaking in service of racial justice, land justice and archival justice.

She currently holds the roles of Soma Sessions Co-Curator at Peaks of Colour, supporting survivors of gendered and racialised trauma to heal through somatic and nature allied practices, and is Creative Producer at Brightbox designing community-led makerspaces where people come together to create, explore and learn.

Asma is touring her directorial debut with ‘Sheeko Laga Tagay / A Story Left Behind’, a film which uncovers the fragmented stories of the first documented Somali woman in Sheffield and invites audiences to critically examine archival representations for Somali & wider diasporic communities and challenge the dominance of public records as the sole source of history in a roaming workshop setting.
