The grids of portraits in Salloum and Alis’ installation intrigue me, as they
represent encounters – however fleeting
– that are not unlike my encounter with Mohammed. Encounters with strangers who disarm you. Strangers whose
life stories haunt you. The portraits in Salloum and Alis’ installation strike
me as pictures of hope. They exhibit a
strength of character, a tenacity, even an
optimism, that is quite different from the impression of Afghanistan generated by mainstream media.
