In September 2023, I showcased my first photography exhibition at Atelier Véron, a charming art gallery nestled in the heart of Montmartre, Paris. The series I presented was a vivid portrayal of life in Marrakech, Morocco, a place that has captivated me with its vibrant energy and rich culture.
Through my lens, I sought to capture the essence of daily life in Marrakech—the children running through the narrow streets, parents lovingly guiding their little ones to school, and the swarm of motorbikes weaving through the bustling alleys. The colorful souks, with their endless variety of goods and textures, added to the chaotic yet beautiful atmosphere of the city. One of the elements I focused on was the random play of shadows, which seemed to dance with the rhythm of the city, adding depth and contrast to the vibrant scenes.
The exhibition was a culmination of months of work and countless hours spent exploring the streets of Marrakech, camera in hand. It was an honor to share these moments with visitors at the gallery and to bring a piece of Morocco to Paris.
