[Bio c. 2010] Ahmad Hosni was born in Cairo, Egypt in 1974. He studied medicine and worked for three years before switching to photography. Since 2004 he has been working as a professional photographer. His work spans a variety of photography fields; from documentary to editorial to art. He has worked for a variety of national and international publications. Hosni’s work blends many of the photographic genres to the point that makes his work hard to classify. He adopts a critical realism that is socially concerned with a subtle, yet astute, political tone.

Lately Hosni has been adopting a cross-disciplinary approach, borrowing from social sciences, and literature. With the book as his medium of choice, Hosni intends to forge relations between critical and literary text and visual expression. He currently lives between Cairo and Barcelona.
