Hamzeh Zahran is a lens-based artist based in San Francisco, exploring themes of identity, memory, and belonging. His images move between observation and intention, informed by an interest in how photography can hold emotion and translate lived experience into visual language. Born in Amman, Jordan, Zahran has spent much of his life between different cultures and languages. This experience shapes his ongoing interest in change, disconnection, and the feeling of being in between places.
