Shahidul Alam
Bangladeshi photographer and activist who founded Drik, Pathshala and the Chobi Mela festival in Dhaka.
About Shahidul Alam
A doctorate in chemistry took me to London, and disquiet at how our stories were told by outsiders brought me back to Bangladesh in the eighties. So I built the tools: Drik, then Pathshala for young photographers, then Chobi Mela, and a network to get South Asian pictures out into the world. Photography has never been separable from rights and accountability for me. I'm glad to speak with students, teachers and anyone building institutions from nothing.
