Ismail Zaidy, Equal Bunshin’s, 2020

Ascendant Moroccan photographer Ismail Zaidy makes the most of his striking North African surroundings, whether staging his shoots against the pastel coloured walls of the Marrakesh streets or the bucolic backdrop of the Atlas mountains. Colour and composition are everything in Zaidy’s Insta-ready images, which frequently see the photographer employ broad swathes of flowing fabric to both separate and unite his subjects—to stirring visual and symbolic effect.
