Triangles Of Views by Fethi Sahraoui (@sahraoui_fethi) is a unique book … “Closed, it forms an equilateral triangle. Open, it is roughly the size of two outstretched hands, placed side by side, palms facing upwards.” states Natasha Marie Llorens (@nmlloren) in the introduction
The photobook includes a preface from Omar Zelig, introduction by @nmlloren, Cover Illustration by @serdas, Graphic Design by @bold_jpg, and Rym Khene for text translation.
After living in the UAE for a decade or so, and given Al Ghoussein’s familial lineage as Palestinian exiles, these photographic images look at the problematic identity in relation to the rapid urban development and transformation of the postcolonial world.
