Looking back to losing both his parents just 22 days apart when he was only three years old, Salih Basheer presents poignant memories and images in this moving visual narrative of loss and healing. He recalls the challenges of moving in with his grandmother, the separation from some of his siblings, and the feeling of not belonging. The self-taught Sudanese photographer went on to study photojournalism at the Danish School of Media and Journalism where he received the Eugene Smith Student grant for the production of this photo book. He has had exhibitions in Ethiopia, the Netherlands, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, and the United Arab Emirates.
