Treat Me Like Your Mother

Mohamad Abdouni is a photographer, creative director, and filmmaker based in Beirut, dedicated to shedding light on and celebrating the rich, yet often hidden or erased queer histories of the Arabic-speaking region through documentaries and photo stories. By retelling and showing these works, both archived and created, he is playing a key role in the art world to make sure queer SWANA voices are brought back to life. His work has been featured in publications such as A24, Telerama, Foam Magazine, Tetu, New Queer Photography, Kaleidoscope, i-D, Photoworks, The Guardian, Facebook, and more.
