Momen Mostafa

○● Moamen Mostafa lebt seit 2017 in Deutschland. Seit 2020 ist er als Dokumentarfotograf tätig. Aktuell untersucht er mittels Porträt- und Dokumentarfotografie die Gewichtung, die Religion im Leben von in Europa lebenden Muslim:innen in sozialer, familiärer und religiöser Hinsicht einnimmt. Moamen Mostafa fotografierte als Amateur den Arabischen Frühling in Kairo. Nach seinem Abitur in Khartum 2016 bereitete er sich in Istanbul und Ankara sprachlich auf das Studium Fotojournalismus und Dokumentarfotografie in Hannover vor, wohin er Ende 2017 zog. Seit Ende 2024 lebt er nahe Hannover und sucht mit seiner Fotografie nach Verständnisbrücken zwischen Religion und Säkularität.
