Winner of numerous international photography prizes, young Saudi street photographer Dhafer Al Shehri b. 1979, lives and works in Riyadh. His keen eye for composition and social commentary, and in particular his depiction of traditional subjects in modern contexts, are the trademarks of his work, which bears witness to the transition of Saudi society from the old to the new.
