sayeda . women in egypt .
Description
An account of the resource
SAYEDA is a photographic work about women in Egypt. I travelled to Egypt on various occasions to do portraits and interviews with women from different walks of life.
Many people in Egypt fight against violations of human, and in particular, women´s rights. In my work, I approached Egyptian women from different social environments whose position in society depends on religion, education, age and socio-economic situation. This work explores the issue of what it means to be a woman in egypt today.
I am so thankful to all women I had the great pleasure to meet, listen to and learn from!
I received a grant from the german foundation “VG Bild Kunst” for this project. I was also award the “Grenzgänger” Scholarship from the Literarisches Colloqium Berlin and the Robert Bosch Foundation, and this work was supported by the Goethe Institute in Cairo.
To see all portraits and read all interviews and also wondeful essays by political scientist Hoda Salah and art historian Franziska Schmidt, please have a look at the book:

Subject
The topic of the resource
Motivation: Part of my family is originally from French Algiers, but when I set out on this project, I had never visited an Arab country before. I like to encounter foreign worlds to learn about other cultures and people. Photography offers an opportunity, a way in. As a photographer, I am interested in the individual circumstances of people or different groups in the population; often these are people who live on the periphery of society or as a minority, either because of their jobs, their religion or life situation.
When the Arab Spring broke out in 2011 and the affected countries were in the media spotlight, I became more concerned with current events and began reading lots of newspaper pieces. Around the same time in 2012, I read a pivotal article written by Egyptian-American journalist and feminist Mona El Tahawy “Why do they hate us?“ which addresses misogyny in Islam. It was like being electrified. I wanted to understand more, and so decided to travel to Egypt to get to know the world of these women: their daily routines, their wishes, dreams and concerns. I wanted to know how differences in social position, religion, education, age and class defined the scope of their lives. The reports about the rapes at Tahrir Square in 2012 and 2013 convinced me of the necessity of this plan.
Preparing for the series was sometimes tedious and tough. Luckily, I had friends in Cairo who could tell me a lot about the country and who opened up a lot of doors for me. Films and books, news and newspaper reports provided more information on how Egyptian society developed over the last fifty years and how it runs today. When I received the grant from VG Bild Kunst for the project, the whole thing became much more concrete and I could finally plan the trip.

Subject
The topic of the resource
Motivation: Part of my family is originally from French Algiers, but when I set out on this project, I had never visited an Arab country before. I like to encounter foreign worlds to learn about other cultures and people. Photography offers an opportunity, a way in. As a photographer, I am interested in the individual circumstances of people or different groups in the population; often these are people who live on the periphery of society or as a minority, either because of their jobs, their religion or life situation.
When the Arab Spring broke out in 2011 and the affected countries were in the media spotlight, I became more concerned with current events and began reading lots of newspaper pieces. Around the same time in 2012, I read a pivotal article written by Egyptian-American journalist and feminist Mona El Tahawy “Why do they hate us?“ which addresses misogyny in Islam. It was like being electrified. I wanted to understand more, and so decided to travel to Egypt to get to know the world of these women: their daily routines, their wishes, dreams and concerns. I wanted to know how differences in social position, religion, education, age and class defined the scope of their lives. The reports about the rapes at Tahrir Square in 2012 and 2013 convinced me of the necessity of this plan.
Preparing for the series was sometimes tedious and tough. Luckily, I had friends in Cairo who could tell me a lot about the country and who opened up a lot of doors for me. Films and books, news and newspaper reports provided more information on how Egyptian society developed over the last fifty years and how it runs today. When I received the grant from VG Bild Kunst for the project, the whole thing became much more concrete and I could finally plan the trip.

Description
An account of the resource
SAYEDA is a photographic work about women in Egypt. I travelled to Egypt on various occasions to do portraits and interviews with women from different walks of life.
Many people in Egypt fight against violations of human, and in particular, women´s rights. In my work, I approached Egyptian women from different social environments whose position in society depends on religion, education, age and socio-economic situation. This work explores the issue of what it means to be a woman in egypt today.
I am so thankful to all women I had the great pleasure to meet, listen to and learn from!
I received a grant from the german foundation “VG Bild Kunst” for this project. I was also award the “Grenzgänger” Scholarship from the Literarisches Colloqium Berlin and the Robert Bosch Foundation, and this work was supported by the Goethe Institute in Cairo.

Subject
The topic of the resource
Motivation: Part of my family is originally from French Algiers, but when I set out on this project, I had never visited an Arab country before. I like to encounter foreign worlds to learn about other cultures and people. Photography offers an opportunity, a way in. As a photographer, I am interested in the individual circumstances of people or different groups in the population; often these are people who live on the periphery of society or as a minority, either because of their jobs, their religion or life situation.
When the Arab Spring broke out in 2011 and the affected countries were in the media spotlight, I became more concerned with current events and began reading lots of newspaper pieces. Around the same time in 2012, I read a pivotal article written by Egyptian-American journalist and feminist Mona El Tahawy “Why do they hate us?“ which addresses misogyny in Islam. It was like being electrified. I wanted to understand more, and so decided to travel to Egypt to get to know the world of these women: their daily routines, their wishes, dreams and concerns. I wanted to know how differences in social position, religion, education, age and class defined the scope of their lives. The reports about the rapes at Tahrir Square in 2012 and 2013 convinced me of the necessity of this plan.
Preparing for the series was sometimes tedious and tough. Luckily, I had friends in Cairo who could tell me a lot about the country and who opened up a lot of doors for me. Films and books, news and newspaper reports provided more information on how Egyptian society developed over the last fifty years and how it runs today. When I received the grant from VG Bild Kunst for the project, the whole thing became much more concrete and I could finally plan the trip.

Description
An account of the resource
SAYEDA is a photographic work about women in Egypt. I travelled to Egypt on various occasions to do portraits and interviews with women from different walks of life.
Many people in Egypt fight against violations of human, and in particular, women´s rights. In my work, I approached Egyptian women from different social environments whose position in society depends on religion, education, age and socio-economic situation. This work explores the issue of what it means to be a woman in egypt today.
I am so thankful to all women I had the great pleasure to meet, listen to and learn from!
I received a grant from the german foundation “VG Bild Kunst” for this project. I was also award the “Grenzgänger” Scholarship from the Literarisches Colloqium Berlin and the Robert Bosch Foundation, and this work was supported by the Goethe Institute in Cairo.
To see all portraits and read all interviews and also wondeful essays by political scientist Hoda Salah and art historian Franziska Schmidt, please have a look at the book:

The topic of the resource
Motivation: Part of my family is originally from French Algiers, but when I set out on this project, I had never visited an Arab country before. I like to encounter foreign worlds to learn about other cultures and people. Photography offers an opportunity, a way in. As a photographer, I am interested in the individual circumstances of people or different groups in the population; often these are people who live on the periphery of society or as a minority, either because of their jobs, their religion or life situation.
When the Arab Spring broke out in 2011 and the affected countries were in the media spotlight, I became more concerned with current events and began reading lots of newspaper pieces. Around the same time in 2012, I read a pivotal article written by Egyptian-American journalist and feminist Mona El Tahawy “Why do they hate us?“ which addresses misogyny in Islam. It was like being electrified. I wanted to understand more, and so decided to travel to Egypt to get to know the world of these women: their daily routines, their wishes, dreams and concerns. I wanted to know how differences in social position, religion, education, age and class defined the scope of their lives. The reports about the rapes at Tahrir Square in 2012 and 2013 convinced me of the necessity of this plan.
Preparing for the series was sometimes tedious and tough. Luckily, I had friends in Cairo who could tell me a lot about the country and who opened up a lot of doors for me. Films and books, news and newspaper reports provided more information on how Egyptian society developed over the last fifty years and how it runs today. When I received the grant from VG Bild Kunst for the project, the whole thing became much more concrete and I could finally plan the trip.

Description
An account of the resource
SAYEDA is a photographic work about women in Egypt. I travelled to Egypt on various occasions to do portraits and interviews with women from different walks of life.
Many people in Egypt fight against violations of human, and in particular, women´s rights. In my work, I approached Egyptian women from different social environments whose position in society depends on religion, education, age and socio-economic situation. This work explores the issue of what it means to be a woman in egypt today.
I am so thankful to all women I had the great pleasure to meet, listen to and learn from!
I received a grant from the german foundation “VG Bild Kunst” for this project. I was also award the “Grenzgänger” Scholarship from the Literarisches Colloqium Berlin and the Robert Bosch Foundation, and this work was supported by the Goethe Institute in Cairo.
To see all portraits and read all interviews and also wondeful essays by political scientist Hoda Salah and art historian Franziska Schmidt, please have a look at the book:

Motivation: In my work I focus on women’s rights. I wanted to do something about FGM in Egypt, because nobody knows about it – very few people at least. And for me, Egypt was a very good example for why it is so hard to fight the practice. It’s a taboo subject. The problem with Egypt as well is, that it’s a dictatorship. There is basically no action on the field. NGO’s have no freedom to do anything. And the traditions are still really anchored in society. Egypt is one of the countries where it’s the most widely spread, but yet with the least initiatives.
The first time I came to Egypt I wanted to highlight something more positive. The initiatives, actions, the way the mentality is changing. After a few weeks I actually realized there are no initiatives – nothing. So I had to rethink: How could I highlight the change of mentality when there is no action. That is why I turned towards portraits women who chose to abandon the tradition. It’s still a work in progress. It’s incomplete.
Description
An account of the resource
Work in progress
We often tend to restrain Female Genital Mutilation to Subsaharan countries, unaware that the practice actually appeared first in Egypt in pharaonic times, while today 90% of the women aged 15-65 are still victims of circumcision.
The khitan-“purification” in Arabic-is now a practice deeply rooted in the social fabric of the country, indifferent of social or religious background. Although the phenomenon has slightly decreased the last decade, the political turmoil and the weight of traditions relying on religious arguments are preventing the implementation of concrete initiatives with real impact.
My project therefore focuses on where actual change did occur; it focuses on women who took the decision to not perpetrate the practice despite social pressure. In the process, each woman becomes an activist at her own level. With the lack of effective “top to bottom”efforts, it's important to highlight stories of hope at the roots of society.
The project evolves around a series of portraits of these survivors of FGM, depicted with their daughters whom they refused to circumcise.
Far from being the passive victims as whom they are usually depicted as, these survivors of FGM have used their own traumatic experience to create positive change.
The portraits are a celebration of a possibility of progress, while pointing out the difficulties of the fight and the possible ways to overcome them.

A name given to the resource
Umm Malek and Malek – Qalanfil, Delta of Egypt
Umm Malek lives in a small muslim village in the Delta of Egypt. She got circumcised at 10 years old and remains profoundly scared by the trauma of that day. « You can easily forget what you’ve eaten on that day, or how the weather was. But you can’t forget the trauma, the pain… »
Malek is now fully conscient of the long term consequences of such practice on her mental health as well as in her married woman’s intimate life. « What we tend to ignore is that many divorces happen because of that barbarian practice. Women and men come become unsatisfied, it leads to a lot of frustration and anger. ». After giving birth to a daughter, she started attending awareness sessions lead by a local NGO in a nearby village. The consequences she was facing herself combined to these sessions convinced her for good that she couldn’t perpetrate that practice on her daughter. « I simply couldn’t inflict such misery to my own daughter. I want her to be happily married. » At first, women of her village pressured her to circumcise Malek, threatening that she would never get her daughter married if she didn’t. « But I took these women to the awareness sessions with me, and since then, five of them decided to not cut their daughters ! »

A name given to the resource
Marsa and Barbara Anna –El Bashra, Upper Egypt
Marsa also comes from a Coptic community, where circumcision is still widely spread. When she was inflicted with FGM at a young age, she suffered from severe bleeding, and had to remain in bed for more than a week. Complications such as infections, HIV or severe bleedings are common in such rurale areas where FGM is practiced with non sterilized razor blades or knives. Tales of women being told to sit in buckets of hot water to heal the wound is also regularly recalled, attesting of the absolute lack of medical attention these young girls receive.
While growing up, Marsa couldn’t get rid of the trauma and the fear of that event. Thankfully, women in her village were slowly giving up on that tradition following the public discourses of the local priest taking position against that practice.

Mariana, Yoanna and Febroina – Mallawi, Upper Egypt
Mariana was circumcised on the same day as her sister and a dozen of young girls taken to the same house, one day after school. There, they were circumcised one after the other by a local da’ya (a village midwife). « Everybody was screaming, some girls tried running away… It was absolutely awful, and we weren’t even told what was happening except that it was for our own good ! »
But a decade ago, Father Aghethaton, the coptic priest of the village, started militating against that practice. Through preaches at the church, awareness sessions and discussions with the mothers of the village, he slowly started eradicating that practice. His successor is now following his path, while almost half of the women of that community has supposedly abandoned the practice. Social pressure and religious arguments are often the two main barriers to the eradication of FGM.

Motivation: In my work I focus on women’s rights. I wanted to do something about FGM in Egypt, because nobody knows about it – very few people at least. And for me, Egypt was a very good example for why it is so hard to fight the practice. It’s a taboo subject. The problem with Egypt as well is, that it’s a dictatorship. There is basically no action on the field. NGO’s have no freedom to do anything. And the traditions are still really anchored in society. Egypt is one of the countries where it’s the most widely spread, but yet with the least initiatives.
The first time I came to Egypt I wanted to highlight something more positive. The initiatives, actions, the way the mentality is changing. After a few weeks I actually realized there are no initiatives – nothing. So I had to rethink: How could I highlight the change of mentality when there is no action. That is why I turned towards portraits women who chose to abandon the tradition. It’s still a work in progress. It’s incomplete.
Description
An account of the resource
Work in progress
We often tend to restrain Female Genital Mutilation to Subsaharan countries, unaware that the practice actually appeared first in Egypt in pharaonic times, while today 90% of the women aged 15-65 are still victims of circumcision.
The khitan-“purification” in Arabic-is now a practice deeply rooted in the social fabric of the country, indifferent of social or religious background. Although the phenomenon has slightly decreased the last decade, the political turmoil and the weight of traditions relying on religious arguments are preventing the implementation of concrete initiatives with real impact.
My project therefore focuses on where actual change did occur; it focuses on women who took the decision to not perpetrate the practice despite social pressure. In the process, each woman becomes an activist at her own level. With the lack of effective “top to bottom”efforts, it's important to highlight stories of hope at the roots of society.
The project evolves around a series of portraits of these survivors of FGM, depicted with their daughters whom they refused to circumcise.
Far from being the passive victims as whom they are usually depicted as, these survivors of FGM have used their own traumatic experience to create positive change.
The portraits are a celebration of a possibility of progress, while pointing out the difficulties of the fight and the possible ways to overcome them.

Title
A name given to the resource
Irine and Monika – El Bashra, Upper Egypt
Irine comes from a small Coptic village in Upper Egypt. She was circumcised one day after school, when she was 12 years old. She doesn’t have much memories of it, but says she’s still deeply traumatized by the violence of the event. She got married at a young age, and gave birth to six kids. Two of them died during the delivery. Consequences of FGM are indeed going way beyond psychological trauma, since obstetrical complications can occur to the victims, such as post-partum hemorrhage, need of episiotomy, tearing of the tissues or flesh, while the rate of death among new born babies is higher. After the birth of her first daughter, she had long discussions with her husband about FGM. « He actually supported my choice, I think he understood it didn’t have anything to do with religion and could only arm Moneka. His family, however, didn’t accept our choice, and still pressure us today. »

Subject
The topic of the resource
Motivation: The series is about the intimate relation between mothers and their sons. It all started with a portrait of a young bodybuilder and his mother; departing from there, Denis Dailleux approached several men to portrait them together with their mothers. Unconsciously, it also reflects upon the importance of the photographer's relation to his own mother.
Description
An account of the resource
The work of Denis Dailleux, who has been living in Cairo for the past nine years, is a lasting tribute to the generosity of the Egyptian people he fell in love with on his first visit fifteen years ago, and Mother and Son, without a doubt, his most personal work. With great respect and sensitivity, he takes us into these families' inner sanctum, where a bodybuilder son's absolute love sounds like an ode to all mothers, with the power to move viewers the world over.

Subject
The topic of the resource
Motivation: The series is about the intimate relation between mothers and their sons. It all started with a portrait of a young bodybuilder and his mother; departing from there, Denis Dailleux approached several men to portrait them together with their mothers. Unconsciously, it also reflects upon the importance of the photographer's relation to his own mother.
Description
An account of the resource
The work of Denis Dailleux, who has been living in Cairo for the past nine years, is a lasting tribute to the generosity of the Egyptian people he fell in love with on his first visit fifteen years ago, and Mother and Son, without a doubt, his most personal work. With great respect and sensitivity, he takes us into these families' inner sanctum, where a bodybuilder son's absolute love sounds like an ode to all mothers, with the power to move viewers the world over.
