saina bidshahri

Experienced the full cycle of life when I stumbled upon today’s youth that plays in my childhood neighbourhood.
#assembly | Get a glimpse into the creative worlds of the nine Assembly members, as they introduce their practices and the 25/26 learning programme.
Meet Saina Bidshahri (@bysaina) a visual storyteller based in Dubai. Whether through photography or film, her work draws from identity, memory and culture and is grounded in learning from people whose lives differ from her own. Here, Saina also documents the Assembly’s off-site workshop exploring the streets and landmarks of Satwa, as viewed through @faizalr31’s personal experiences and family histories in the neighbourhood.
The Assembly is a yearly talent development programme that supports young artistic leadership in the UAE. This year’s cohort explores new ways of thinking about curatorial practices through mapping strategies.
Stay tuned to learn more about each Assembly member, their practice and this year’s programme!

"Abdollah was riding his motorbike down a dust path, dressed in worn jeans and a classic black t-shirt. He had the kind of presence that made you look twice — friendly, grounded, yet undeniably cool. Something about the way he carried himself made me reach for my camera."
Saina Bidshahri (@bysaina) is a Dubai-based Iranian photographer exploring culture, storytelling, and visual anthropology. Drawn to themes of identity and the ways memory shapes who we are, she finds her deepest purpose in documentary work. Capturing human stories and the spiritual strength people carry. Her photographs preserve moments that invite viewers to pause and see themselves in new ways.

In Qashqai storytelling, the horse is a loyal companion, an extension of the self, and a metaphor for freedom. They are said to sense their rider’s emotions, detect dangers on the horizon, and read the shifting weather.
Watching this interaction unfold before me felt like stepping into a cowboy’s tale, but one written on Iran’s open plains. This is a bond that has lasted through time, unbroken by any generation.

Mazar is among the few Qashqai nomads living in Iran. Beyond her ability to endure and adapt to mountain life, she’s also been a talented carpet weaver since the age of seven. When asked “How do you prepare for your carpet designs?”, she answers “There is no preparation. Look outside. What do you see? The mountains, the wild trees, the walnuts, the goats, the colours. I simply lay my eyes on the world and begin weaving”.
For Mazar, weaving is more than a task—it is a translation. She honours a language passed down generations. She does not only live in nature. She listens to it, speaks through it, and becomes it. She is Mazar.

Der Instagram Story Viewer ist ein einfaches Tool, mit dem Sie Instagram Stories, Videos, Fotos oder IGTV heimlich ansehen und speichern können. Mit diesem Service können Sie Inhalte herunterladen und offline genießen, wann immer Sie möchten. Wenn Sie etwas Interessantes auf Instagram finden, das Sie später überprüfen möchten, oder Stories anonym ansehen möchten, ist unser Viewer ideal für Sie. Anonstories bietet eine ausgezeichnete Lösung, um Ihre Identität zu schützen. Instagram hat die Stories-Funktion erstmals im August 2023 eingeführt, die schnell auch von anderen Plattformen übernommen wurde, dank ihres fesselnden, zeitlich begrenzten Formats. Stories ermöglichen es Nutzern, schnelle Updates zu teilen, sei es Fotos, Videos oder Selfies, ergänzt durch Text, Emojis oder Filter, und sind nur 24 Stunden lang sichtbar. Dieser begrenzte Zeitrahmen sorgt für eine hohe Interaktion im Vergleich zu regulären Posts. Heutzutage sind Stories eine der beliebtesten Methoden, um sich in sozialen Medien zu verbinden und zu kommunizieren. Wenn Sie jedoch eine Story ansehen, kann der Ersteller Ihren Namen in seiner Viewer-Liste sehen, was ein Problem für die Privatsphäre sein kann. Was ist, wenn Sie Stories durchsuchen möchten, ohne bemerkt zu werden? Hier wird Anonstories nützlich. Es ermöglicht Ihnen, öffentliche Instagram-Inhalte anzusehen, ohne Ihre Identität preiszugeben. Geben Sie einfach den Benutzernamen des Profils ein, das Sie interessiert, und das Tool zeigt dessen neueste Stories an. Funktionen des Anonstories Viewers: - Anonymes Browsen: Sehen Sie Stories, ohne in der Viewer-Liste zu erscheinen. - Kein Konto erforderlich: Sehen Sie öffentliche Inhalte, ohne ein Instagram-Konto zu erstellen. - Inhalte herunterladen: Speichern Sie beliebige Story-Inhalte direkt auf Ihrem Gerät für die Offline-Nutzung. - Highlights anzeigen: Greifen Sie auf Instagram-Highlights zu, auch über das 24-Stunden-Fenster hinaus. - Repost-Überwachung: Verfolgen Sie Reposts oder Interaktionen bei Stories für persönliche Profile. Einschränkungen: - Dieses Tool funktioniert nur mit öffentlichen Accounts; private Accounts bleiben unzugänglich. Vorteile: - Datenschutzfreundlich: Sehen Sie sich beliebige Instagram-Inhalte an, ohne bemerkt zu werden. - Einfach und unkompliziert: Keine App-Installation oder Registrierung erforderlich. - Exklusive Tools: Laden Sie Inhalte herunter und verwalten Sie sie auf eine Weise, die Instagram nicht bietet.
Behalten Sie Instagram-Updates diskret im Blick, schützen Sie Ihre Privatsphäre und bleiben Sie anonym.
Sehen Sie Profile und Fotos anonym an, ganz einfach mit dem Private Profile Viewer.
