ABOUT

British/Moroccan photographer. Based in the UK.

Karim Skalli’s photography grows from an interest in how identity is formed through place. Working with natural light and subtle colour, he looks for beauty in the overlooked moments of daily life. His images trace the stories hidden in ordinary spaces, revealing how the everyday can hold memory, emotion, and a sense of belonging.
