About
Issa Saleh AlKindy, an Omani photographer, was reared in several countries across the Middle East and North Africa. His exposure to different cultures from an early age sparked a curiosity and infused in him an appreciation for ethnic heritage and modern traditions. These elements are evident in his photography, as they are depicted in assorted images of people, landscapes, and abstract forms.
Issa’s appreciation for the fine arts began in his adolescent years. His interest in photography was an accidental by-product of his effort to improve his drawing techniques. In high school, he enrolled in a photography course to learn to capture images of subjects he was interested in drawing or painting. Over the years, he developed an admiration for photography as an artistic medium of expression that enables him to convey a unique point of view when capturing a fleeting moment in time. He strives to portray the significance of that moment through a picture.
