Photography
Abdulhamid Kircher was born in Berlin and emigrated to the United States at the age of eight. His analogue photographic and installative practice reflects on the consequences of patriarchy and violence, as well as the search for reconciliation and closeness. His work often circles around the absence of his father, using the family album as a fragmentary, living resource. He is a recipient of the Grand Prix Images Vevey and the Hamburger Bahnhof Studio Award.
