Leila Alaoui (10 July 1982 – 18 January 2016) was a French-Moroccan photographer and video artist. She died from injuries suffered in a terrorist attack in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso.
Alaoui in 1982 and studied photography at City University of New York (CUNY) before spending time in Morocco and Lebanon.
It seems way too early to pay respect to Leila Alaoui, talented French-Moroccan photographer, in MER’s Remembering sessions. After all, she entered 2016 full of power, only in her thirties.
Her work had been exhibited internationally in recent years, including at the Maison Européenne de la Photographie in Paris, and was featured in newspapers and magazines including The New York Times and Vogue. Last couple of years she lived between Marrakech and Beirut.
One of her most beautiful projects was The Moroccans. About it, she wrote: “Morocco has a specific position in this backstory of photographers using the culture – particularly elements from native costume and architecture – to construct their own fantasies of an exotic ‘other’ world.-- Midde Eeast Revised
