Seen in Tigray Region, Ethiopia by Ioanna Lungu

“ከትግራይ በሰላም/From Tigray in Peace—Ajeb is the local photographer in the village of Addi Gilgil. She opened her studio 4 months ago, and travels to Adwa to print the photos. I hope she is alive. I hope she can resume her business once the conflict is over. It's painful to write this.” [date of caption: Nov 26, 2020]

Seen in Berber, Sudan by @hasnkamil

“Tales From a Forgotten City is a photo series that revolves around life in Berber city. Once an important center and the capital of Sudan's Northern region, it’s slowly losing its significant to other growing cities. As many leave the city to seek better opportunities, they leave behind a city frozen in time.”

“The annual celebration of “Sitti Mariam” the nobel sufi lady of Khatmiyyah sect in Sinkat town in east Sudan; a three days feast ending by the first Thursday of Rajab (month of Hijri calender). During Sitti Mariam lifetime, (1870 - 1952), the celebration was an annual meeting to assist the followers of the sect, and especially the needy, whom she cared mostly about. The most bold celebration feature of eastern Sudan tribes who follow khatimyyah sect is the women colourful toub, and men traditional white Jalabiya outfit.” — Hisham Karouri
