Mousganistan is the first book of the acclaimed Moroccan-born, Belgium-raised artist Mous Lamrabat, encompassing a body of work that has been more than five years in the making.
Mousganistan is a celebration of love and freedom, and in-between territory in which opposites collide and create beauty and abundance, new connections and dialogues in a visually thought-provoking and at times confronting way.
Encompassing his iconic fashion imagery and personal work, Mousganistan is a journey into the artist’s diasporic life, a joyous and yet intensely sharp portrait of the contact space between cultures, symbols, religions, capitalism and survival.
By challenging our expectations of what cultures are, and how they should be portrayed, his images create a space for love, compassion and understanding - allowing us to imagine a possible, different world.
Mous Lamrabat has worked for magazines like Vogue and GQ. His exhibition Mousganistan was on view in several venues, among which FOAM in Amsterdam and FOMU in Antwerp, and in 2023 he opened the expo There is no one like us in London.
