MOROCCO
MOUS LAMRABAT
PRESENTATION
Mous Lamrabat is a Moroccan-Belgian photographer. He offers provocative and offbeat images where he mixes ostentatious luxury, fashion and oriental tradition. He searches in natural settings for photographing a poetry of simplicity. His work is distinguished by its play of colors and textures.
Lamrabat is reinventing what it means to photograph fashion. Mous is particularly known for its images of dreamy masked bodies, in pastel shades and visually translating the obsessive character of Morocco with its brand image. As a photographer who constantly plays with his style, he sometimes takes abstract images in flash, and sometimes vivid and indigenous colors, it is not really easy to place his work. But it is precisely for this reason that people are attracted to his work, to this stranger and to what will come up. A curiosity for the creation of each image.
He has been published in magazines such as Elle, The Last magazine, De standaard magazine and Modzik. He collaborated with brands like Puma, Sony, Sisley, and others more edgy like Maison Artc or Botter.
