Hi, i’m Jebrahn جبران - this is my anglicized Arabic name, in Arabic.
i’m passionate about beauty, storytelling, and intimacy. the aim of my shots scouts moreso toward the earthbound, the soul, and the soil than for contrived design- although i do love design.
i'm interested in a wide range of subject&concept material: the weather, color, texture, movement, primordial earthen elements, everyday violence, malformation, perfectionism, garbage, craftsmanship, mundanity, photography as eye-training or meditation practice, comedy, anthropocene toxicity, laborers, wildlife, watersheds, shooting from the hip, city streets, cultural gatherings, portraiture.
my background is in theatre, music, permaculture, and yoga. my background is also in all things female-specific, trauma informed healthcare, botany and herbalism, painting and pottery, poverty, farming, swimming, manual therapy, asylum seeking, medical abuse (antiquated and present-tense), developmental disabilities, being controversially a tech slave and also a tech beneficiary, watching things fall apart, watching the west be paved over with asphalt, lovers, angels, indians, friends, villians, colonial monsters, local ghosts, and demons — all of which/whom i love to hide and seek in my photographs - and yours.
