Freelance photographer and expatriate, Mo Shaban returns to his hometown Baghdad in late 2012 to find a landscape and a people much transformed after over a quarter of a century of living in America. Seeking to come to terms with what he had witnessed, he set out to photographically chronicle his over four months of living among its long suffering people. Mo's photographs are intuitive. They are at once candid and imaginative. Each developed in its own merit artistically. This book's included images, culled from thousands taken, add an important human element to the often two dimensional narrative of war, photojournalists often favor. Incredibly, this level of photography was achieved with a simple Canon sx400 camera and under considerable security risk. In late 2014, many of these photos were featured at the Iraqi Cultural Center Gallery in Washington DC and were subsequently featured in US and Canadian exhibitions and other media coverage with critical acclaim.
