BOOKS
Mashid Mohadjerin’s work is an intricate tapestry of personal and collective memory, weaving together photography, text, video, and archival material to explore themes of displacement, resistance, and identity. (Text Andrea Copetti)

Riding the Silence & the Crying Dervish
(to buy click on BOOKS above)
In Riding in Silence & The Crying Dervish (2025), Mashid draws from the depths of her family history, unraveling the echoes of migration, forced departures, and the quiet endurance of those caught between worlds. The book builds on her previous work, Freedom is Not Free (2021), where she explored the role of women in movements of resistance across the MENA region. However, in this latest series, she turns her gaze towards the intersection of masculinity, political ideology, and displacement, examining how historical forces shape personal narratives in ways both visible and unseen. (text Andrea Copetti)

Freedom is Not Free
(Special edition still available)
What does freedom mean? Through the lens of her camera and through a kaleidoscope of history of women in resistance in the Middle East and North Africa Mashid put together a multidimensional work which, through its varied formats such as photography, collage, text, and historical images, takes the viewer on a dreamlike journey neither bound by space nor time.

Lipstick and Gas Masks
(Sold Out)
In the uprisings that started in Tunisia, surged to Egypt, then swept through other parts of the Middle East, women played an important role, standing alongside their male counterparts.
Coming from different ideological and social backgrounds, the women portrayed in this series defy stereotypes. Spirited, idealistic, courageous, and resolute, they led or instigated revolutionary acts in their respective countries.

Textile as Resistance
Published by Hannibal Books
Refuge, resistance, hope, happiness, tradition, beauty, spirituality and decolonization. Textiles are – and have long been – a powerful medium for the expression of identity, especially in times of war and crisis. What messages and stories can fabrics share? What does an outfit or a piece of clothing say about the wearer? Can textiles weave the past together with the present? Can they be an act of resistance?
