Finally, I got around to blogging about this really cool collection of books published by London-based publishers Oodee Books. The latest edition of the POV Female series showcases the work of five young female photographers based in Beirut.
POV Female is an anthology of 25 books that aims to promote the work of young women photographers: five books by five young women photographers produced in five different cities in the world. The previous editions of POV Female took place in London (2011), Tokyo (2012), Johannesburg (2013), Bogota (2014).
The five photographers living and working in Beirut are: Ayla Hibri, Randa Mirza, Caroline Tabet, Lamia Maria Abillama and Lara Tabet. All five monographic books were launched in Beirut at the bookshop Papercup last week and I especially love the variety and breadth of the work. The snapshots of life really convey the diverse nature of the city and the many hidden depths of talent to be found across the region.
Go girls! We love this one.
