Larissa Sansour is a Danish-Palestinian artist, born in East Jerusalem, she studied Fine Arts in Copenhagen, London and New York.

Her work has been exhibited worldwide in galleries, museums and film festivals. Some of these include Tate Modern, London; the Reina Sofia, Madrid; and the Arken Museum of Modern Art in Denmark.
Sansour's works represent the essence, the reality and the intricacy of life in Palestine and the Middle East using visual elements associated with entertainment and televised leisure activities. She uses humorous scenes such as references to science-fiction or spaghetti westerns that she always contrasts with scenes from the current situation in Palestine and the Middle East.
