Myriam Boulos — À propos — Slash Paris

Myriam Boulos (born in 1992 in Beirut, Lebanon) emerged from a country fragmented by war that had to reinvent itself. At the age of sixteen, she started to use her camera to question Beirut, its people, and her own position in Lebanese society. She graduated with a master’s degree in photography from Lebanese Academy of Fine Arts in 2015. She has taken part in both national and international collective exhibitions, including Infinite identities (Amsterdam, The Netherlands), Troisième biennale des photographes du monde arabe (Paris), C’est Beyrouth (Paris), Berlin PhotoWeek, and Photomed (Beirut). She received the Purple Lens Award in 2014, which resulted in her first solo exhibition in 2015. Her second solo exhibition took place at the French institute of Lebanon in 2019. Today she uses photography to explore, defy and resist all forms of social and political domination.
