Réminiscence (2003) Photography by Saâd Tazi

Saâd Tazi, artist photographer, is an attentive observer of daily life, a hoarder of moments of sweetness and a poet of the streets. Through his lens, he strives to preserve from oblivion those fleeting moments that we go through in our lives that are always too hasty. His photographs are havens of peace intended to soothe the gaze of the urban warriors that we have become. They offer a place of rejuvenation, a place where we can rest our minds and lighten our worries.

His passion for photography began as an autodidact, guided by the traces left by his father. Subsequently, he took courses, but quickly realized that the theoretical approach could hardly enrich his artistic approach. For Saâd, photography is a natural act, a vital breath that accompanies him on a daily basis.

Born in 1966, Saâd Tazi lives and works in Marrakech, Morocco, a city rich in contrasts and inspirations. His shots capture the fleeting moments of city life, from bustling streets to tranquil scenes. He transforms these fleeting moments into timeless images, creating a connection between the viewer and the emotions that lurk in every corner of the city.

His visual approach is imbued with authenticity, reflecting life as it is, without artifice. Saâd Tazi creates a visual space where viewers can get lost and find themselves at the same time. Through his photographs, he not only captures the present moment, but also offers a way to appreciate the subtle beauty of the world around us.
