Born in Morocco and raised in Belgium, has long been fascinated by diasporic experience and the surprising parallels, contradictions, and intersections between cultures. Through fashion photography and vibrant personal work, the photographer celebrates love, freedom, and unity.
Five years in the making, Lamrabat’s new book is a dive into “an in-between territory in which opposites collide and create beauty and abundance, new connections, and dialogues in a visually thought-provoking and at times confronting way,” says a statement.
Published by Lannoo, Mousganistan leads us on a journey through portraiture and Lamrabat’s creative process, highlighting the spaces where cultures, symbols, capitalism, spirituality, and survival meet. He often focuses on diasporic communities, tracing connections between global geography, cultures, and identity.
Lamrabat often focuses up-close on an individual or a pair sporting unique garments or abstract coverings, accessorizing with brand logos or pop culture symbols. His images nearly glow with bold contrasts, vivid color, and remarkable backdrops. Beauty, interconnectedness, and youthful energy challenge our notions of “traditional” culture and open our minds to imagine a future fueled by compassion and understanding.
