SALIH BASHEER RACCONTA IL SUDAN DI CHI HA DOVUTO LASCIARLO
In The Return, Salih Basheer fotografa ciò che resta quando un luogo continua a esistere nella memoria, ma non può più essere verificato nel presente. Khartoum diventa così una città ricordata, immaginata, ricostruita attraverso immagini, testimonianze e frammenti di vita.
Basheer non si definisce un fotografo di guerra. Il suo sguardo si concentra su ciò che viene dopo: lo sfollamento, il trauma, la perdita e quella sensazione di appartenere contemporaneamente a più luoghi e a nessuno del tutto.
Nel libro, fotografie, disegni, collage e testi costruiscono un racconto in cui il ritorno non coincide necessariamente con il tornare indietro. Perché a volte il luogo da cui siamo partiti esiste ancora, ma non è più quello che ricordavamo.

This week, Equator publishes the first half of an extraordinary two-part essay by Magdi El-Gizouli: a monumental blend of memoir, social analysis, history and war reporting that brings to life a city devastated by Sudan’s total war.
El-Gizouli, a doctor from Khartoum, depicts the city in the aftermath of war, shattered and transformed by the fighting. People pass through the essay in major and minor roles: El-Gizouli’s former professor, a neighbour whose brains were blown out on his doorstep, the Lions of Al-Barrari, the Ghadiboon unit that unknowingly paraphrases Hegel via Lenin, the hero of the iron bridge. Khartoum had been a flawed city even earlier, El-Gizouli writes: eroded by austerity, warped by the state’s land policies, fitfully represented in politics. But the war made the city its stage: museums ransacked, electricity cables plundered for copper, hulks of military machines littering a bank of the Nile, shallow graves dug. Only the mesquite bushes grow on, impervious to the fighting.
The second part of this essay will be published next week.

🆕 REVELA’T ARTIST - Salih Basheer
[ESP]
@_salihbasheer (Sudán, 1995) presenta un proyecto sobre la guerra que comenzó en Sudán en abril de 2023 y obligó a miles de personas a dejar sus hogares para sobrevivir.
No observa el conflicto desde lejos: su propia familia sigue en Jartum. Por eso, sus imágenes parten de una experiencia muy cercana.
El proyecto reúne también las historias de familias que buscaron refugio en países vecinos. Personas que escaparon por caminos distintos, pero huyendo del mismo horror.
Aunque logren ponerse a salvo, la guerra y los recuerdos continúan presentes, incluso en sus sueños.
Su fotolibro 22 Days in Between recibió el Photo-Text Book Award de Les Rencontres d’Arles.

Salih Basheer (Sudan, 1995) presenta un projecte sobre la guerra que va començar al Sudan l’abril de 2023 i va obligar milers de persones a deixar casa seva per sobreviure.
No observa el conflicte des de lluny: la seva família encara és a Khartum. Per això, les seves imatges parteixen d’una experiència molt propera.
El projecte recull també les històries de famílies que van buscar refugi en països veïns. Persones que van escapar per camins diferents, però fugint del mateix horror.
Encara que aconsegueixin estar fora de perill, la guerra i els records continuen presents, fins i tot en els somnis.
El seu fotollibre 22 Days in Between va rebre el Photo-Text Book Award de Les Rencontres d’Arles.

Salih Basheer (Sudan, 1995) presents a project about the war that began in Sudan in April 2023 and forced thousands of people to leave their homes to survive.
He is not watching the conflict from a distance: his own family remains in Khartoum. This closeness runs through his images.
The project also shares the stories of families who found refuge in neighbouring countries. They followed different paths, but were all escaping the same horror.
Even after reaching safety, the war and its memories remain, sometimes entering their dreams.
His photobook 22 Days in Between received the Photo-Text Book Award at Les Rencontres d’Arles.

Join us for FOTODOK BOOK TALKS #45 on the 25th of February at TivoliVredenburg (@tivolivredenburg)! One of the books we will explore is “The Return” by Salih Basheer (@_salihbasheer). The live talk show will be hosted by documentary photographer Giya Makondo-Wills (@giyamakondowills).
In this photobook, Basheer documents the devastating impact of the war in Sudan through personal images, diary texts, and testimonies. Closely connected to the story himself, he reflects on loss, displacement, and the uncertainty faced by those still in Sudan and those forced to flee. Moving between memory and lived experience, the work offers an intimate perspective on conflict and its lasting human consequences.
Salih Basheer (b. 1995, Omdurman, Sudan) is a Sudanese photographer and Magnum Photos nominee. His work focuses on personal narratives shaped by conflict, migration, and belonging. His previous book “22 Days in Between” received the 2023 Les Rencontres d’Arles Photo-Text Book Award.
