Collection: ISHAQ MADAN

Ishaq (b. 1992) is a Bahraini photographer whose work is driven by curiosity and emotion, capturing fleeting moments with depth and introspection. His journey began with documenting family summer holidays, eventually evolving into a profound exploration of human experiences through the lens.

His work, influenced by Daido Moriyama, Camille Zakharia, and Mous Lambrabrat, is deeply inspired by the concept of sonder—the realization that every passerby has a life as vivid and complex as our own. This perspective fuels his storytelling, blending raw emotion with intentional documentation.

Ishaq’s photography has been showcased internationally, with notable exhibitions including MoMA’s Photo Club, Misk Art Institute’s Azeema, and multiple features in Condé Nast Traveller Middle East. His dream collaboration? Arsenal FC—an unwavering passion since 1999.
