Photo Fair: Young Mubarak Reigns!

While some people may argue with the naturality of these photos, this 16 year old photographer is doing what he terms PHO(NE)TOGRAPHY, which to him is capturing life in its true form through the lens of his phone.  He's got a collection which he hopes to publish into an album.  We present to the public some of Mubarak's works so we could all see life from the probing eyes of the lad. Although the young pho(ne)tographer is already having his photos watermarked with "Mubys Reign", we are keen to see where his reign will take us. Come and see!

Lonely life

Not too young to lead

Ruination

Stagnation

Innocence

Citizen

 

Mubarak Muhammad was born on the 11th of August 1999. He had his Primary education in Sokoto and his Secondary school education at Decs New College Minna.

Upon completion of his secondary education, he joined the Arts Centre of the Hilltop Creative Arts Foundation after being convinced by a friend.  He grew cold feet when he arrived at the Arts Centre and realized most of the teenagers were either writing poems or stories as against Drama that he liked to receive mentor-ship on. After active participation in the Foundation's activities,  Mubarak developed love for pictures as a form of expression which his words couldn't aptly capture.  He hopes to present his collection of photos to the world before he leaves for Uganda in July to study Medicine and Surgery.
