I am Sari Ahmed Awad Omer. I was born in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia as one of the children of Sudanese expatriates there at that time. I saw a picture of my dear uncle with the words written on the back: “If the particles die, the drawings remain.” That phrase remained in my memory until the year 2009, when my manager gave me a Sony point-and-shoot digital camera and told me to take pictures of us for the report. Since that time, my passion and love for pictures, pictures, and photographs has increased. I remember perfectly that image that is still in my mind of a child drinking water from the pipe of a hand pump while looking at the camera with a full smile. The image continued to haunt me and it increased my passion and love for photography. In 2013, I received my first training and paid work from the United Nations Children’s Fund. Since that time, I have devoted myself completely to photography and travel in Sudan and outside Sudan with organizations working in the humanitarian field (USAID, DT-Global, UNDP, UNCEF, UNIOM, WORLD VISION, NGO’s()

Through that work, I had the opportunity to visit all the states of Sudan and about 14 other countries in Africa, Europe, Asia, and elsewhere..

In the past fifteen years, I have documented many social issues affecting the lives of the urban poor and marginalized, and I have covered major emergencies resulting from man-made and natural disasters in Sudan. I then moved on to work closely in political coverage during the transitional government period. With the Prime Minister. I realized that photography is (Photography a part of your soul that you cast for people to see. So cast it with caution, deliberation, and politeness).
