A searing, diaristic portrayal of a city and society in revolution by Magnum nominee Myriam Boulos

In her debut monograph, Myriam Boulos casts an unflinching eye on the revolution that began in Lebanon in 2019 with protests against government corruption and austerity--culminating with the aftermath of the devastating Beirut port explosion of August 2020. She portrays her friends and family with startling energy and intimacy, in states of pleasure and protest. Boulos renders the body in public space as a powerful motif, both visceral and vulnerable in the face of state neglect and violence. Of her approach to photography, Boulos states: "It's more of a need than a choice. I obsess about things and I don't know how to deal with these obsessions in any other way but photography." Featuring a contextual essay by noted writer Mona Eltahawy, What's Ours showcases Boulos's strident and urgent vision.

Boulos, Myriam: - Myriam Boulos (born in Beirut, 1992) emerged from a country fragmented by war that had to reinvent itself. At the age of sixteen, she started to use her camera to question Beirut, its people, and her own position in Lebanese society. She graduated with a master's degree in photography from the Lebanese Academy of Fine Arts in 2015. She has taken part in both national and international collective exhibitions, including Close Enough at ICP, NY; Infinite Identities at Huis Marseille, Amsterdam; and Troisième Biennale des Photographes du Monde Arabe, Paris. She received the Purple Lens Award in 2014, which resulted in her first solo exhibition in 2015. Her second solo exhibition took place at the French Institute of Lebanon in 2019. Her work has been published in Aperture, FOAM, Vogue, Time, and Vanity Fair, among other publications. In 2020 Myriam co-founded and became the photo editor of Al Hayya, a bilingual magazine that publishes literary and visual content on the works, interests, and strife of women in her region. In 2021 she joined Magnum as a nominee.


Eltahawy, Mona: - Mona Eltahawy is an award-winning writer on Arab and Muslim issues and global feminism. She is the author of Headscarves and Hymens: Why the Middle East Needs a Sexual Revolution (2015), founder of the newsletter Feminist Giant, and a regular contributor to the New York Times.
