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, \u003ci\u003eWhat's Ours\u003c\/i\u003e showcases Boulos's strident and urgent vision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Myriam Boulos, Mona Eltahawy (Text by (Art\/Photo Books)), Myriam Boulos (Text by (Art\/Photo Books))\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/19\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Aperture\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781597115605\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 7.40w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBoulos, Myriam:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003eMyriam Boulos\u003c\/b\u003e (born in Beirut, 1992) emerged from a country fragmented by war that had to reinvent itself.
