In her captivating debut monograph, Myriam Boulos takes us on a searing and deeply personal journey through the revolution that erupted in Lebanon in 2019, fueled by protests against government corruption and austerity.

Whats Ours, the monograph, is accompanied by a contextual essay by renowned writer Mona Eltahawy, which provides valuable insight into the historical and social context of the revolution. Eltahawy's words enhance our understanding of the events that unfolded and the profound impact they had on the lives of the people involved.

In conclusion, Myriam Boulos' debut monograph, Whats Ours, is a powerful and thought-provoking exploration of a society in revolution. Through her intimate portrayals and bold visual language, Boulos sheds light on the complexities of human experiences and the resilience of the human spirit. Her photography serves as a powerful tool for social change, reminding us of the importance of documenting the truth and standing up against injustice. This monograph is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of the Middle East and the power of visual storytelling.
