DINA LOBO

she/her
Youth Artist

My name is Dina, and I am a multidisciplinary artist and filmmaker based in Toronto. My practice combines film, sound design, poetry, and experimental approaches to push the boundaries of traditional narratives. Born to Syrian and Indian heritage, I draw on my cultural background to explore themes of identity, memory, and belonging.

My artistic journey began as a writer, spending nearly a decade crafting long-form poetry. Over time, my passion for storytelling evolved into film, leading me to pursue a Master of Fine Arts in Documentary Media. This deepened my understanding of narrative structures and laid the foundation for my visual storytelling practice.
