One Day on Sonnenallee Street

  By artist and photographer Mohamed Badarneh and journalist and writer Hiba Obaid

In collaboration with Berlin Mondiale.

This project aims to glimpse the rich tapestry of life on a bustling street in Berlin. Through a compelling fusion of striking imagery and evocative narratives, the project invites you to embark on a transformative experience, where a single day becomes a portal to an entire lifetime.

Mohamed Badarne

Born in Galilee, Mohamed has been a social activist since he was a teenager. Until 2012, when he received his diploma in photography, he worked as a school teacher and NGO worker. Since then, Mohamed has dedicated his professional life solely to photography - as an artist, trainer, activist and curator.

He works with international organisations, NGOs, and communities to conduct workshops on social photography, visual campaigning, and investigative photojournalism. For his own projects, he received grants from renowned art foundations and human rights organisations. His projects ‘Come Back Safely’, ‘Forgotten Team’, and ‘Crack 708’ were exhibited, among others, in Amman, Beirut, Berlin, Brussels, Geneva, and New York.
