29 years old, Egyptian freelance visual researcher/photographer, and socia activist through her work. She focuses on the issues of society that are often looked over or forgotten, and as a photojournalist she has covered two revolutions in Egypt and their aftermath. Now she works to mix her artistic development with her experience in the field. Recently she has been working on uncovering breast ironing issues in Cameroon, refugees, gay prostitution in Germany, and transgender people in Egypt. Top publications she has been featured in include “New York Times” US, “Newsweek” US\Japan, “Politiken” Denmark, “Internazionale” Italy, “GEO” Germany, “Klassekampen” Norway, “Wordt Vervolgd” Netherlands, “DOC!” Poland, “6mois” France. Activism and humanitarian documentary photography is very interesting to me and close to my heart, something i wish to have the opportunity to explore in the future of of my career.
