Ghorba

Ghorba -
Strangers in The West“Ghorba” is an Arabic word that loosely translates to estrangement or exile. It often refers to the feeling of leaving behind collective life—family, homeland, community—in pursuit of individual aspirations.

With a focus on Arab and North African immigration to New York, GHORBA is a publication that brings together visual archives and personal narratives from the diaspora. It explores how these communities rebuild, reimagine, and assert their identities in a new place. Through interviews and imagery, the project becomes a visual and oral documentation of diaspora artists, shopkeepers, restaurant owners, and more—highlighting the intersections of culture, religion, memory, and selfhood.

All photographs are taken by Arab and North African–identified artists, including myself, with select archival contributions from the New York Public Library’s image archive.

A mix of photography and interviews that seeks to document the spirit of living, making, and belonging in diaspora.
