Faryda Moumouh

A philographer may’be… (where philosophy meets photography) Faryda Moumouh is an extravert artist - photographer who is self - willed in life. She's driven by her passions in life like film, music, love but most of it photography. Why, because the photographic image is her way to communicate with the complex but gorgeous world outside, almost for more then 16 years! Her strong mind and independent thoughts are inspired by the Human conditions of daily life and the philosophical thoughts of Sartre. Life is a-state-of-mind. She's a self made woman and her artistic work is pinheaded, original, personal with an eye for detail, light, atmosphere, darkness, melancholy, beauty, strength and comfort. But they are all well-considered! The images have a solitary nature all though Faryda is very open and social in life. The photo's are stills, cinematographic, suggestive, open, with a feeling for beauty in life! The pictures are windows for little stories, feelings, ideas, emotions and very associative in the minds of people who watch those pictures if they open their minds. She's an atheist but Faryda Moumouh is a true believer in life, individualism, and a world marked by experience, moments, creativity of all kind, colors, darkness, shadow...
