A searing, diaristic portrayal of a city and society in revolution by the winner of the Foam Paul Huf Award 2025: Myriam Boulos. In her debut monograph, Boulos casts an unflinching eye on the revolution that began in Lebanon in 2019 with protests against government corruption and austerity—culminating with the aftermath of the devastating Beirut port explosion of August 2020. She portrays her friends and family with startling energy and intimacy, in states of pleasure and protest. Boulos renders the body in public space as a powerful motif, both visceral and vulnerable in the face of state neglect and violence. Of her approach to photography, Boulos states: “It’s more of a need than a choice. I obsess about things and I don’t know how to deal with these obsessions in any other way but photography.” Featuring a contextual essay by noted writer Mona Eltahawy, What’s Ours showcases Boulos’s strident and urgent vision.

Myriam Boulos (born in Beirut, 1992) emerged from a country fragmented by war that had to reinvent itself. She graduated with a master’s degree in photography from the Lebanese Academy of Fine Arts in 2015. She has taken part in both national and international collective exhibitions. Her work has been published in ApertureFOAMVogueTime, and Vanity Fair, among other publications. In 2020 Myriam co-founded and became the photo editor of Al Hayya, a bilingual magazine that publishes literary and visual content on the works, interests, and strife of women in her region. In 2021 she joined Magnum as a nominee.
