In "Shadows Along the Road", Emad Ibrahim pays tribute to the average, hard-working people he has encountered throughout his life, including the cheese seller, the shepherd, the gardener and the construction worker, among others. These people and the stories they told were a great source of inspiration for Ibrahim. He listened to them and identified with their feelings, which ranged from hope to despair, perseverance to abandonment, accepting the status quo but seeking change. Ibrahim has been portraying these captivating stories for almost thirty years, mainly through portraits, both full-length and regular portraits.
