Karim Fayed : Landscapes

Karim Fayed, son of Harrods Chairman Mohamed Al Fayed, has shown a strong commitment to and passion for photography since he received his first camera as a young child. These stunning panoramic landscapes aim to capture the essence and purity inherent in each unique environment presented to the viewer.

Having previously exhibited in Paris, France and Loch Shin, Scotland, this is Karim’s first exhibition in London. He specializes in panoramic photography and prefers to work with film. He never manipulates or retouches any of his photographs, choosing to capture the perfect image in situ.

Karim’s travels have taken him to many far-reaching destinations including the Scottish highlands and the American deserts, the frozen Norwegian wilderness, Iceland, Brazil and the coasts of South Africa. This exhibition presents a glimpse into the experience of witnessing first-hand the overwhelming beauty of the natural world.

“I’ve always had an affinity with nature from an early age – I love standing in the middle of the countryside, with nothing to distract me, just the sound of the wind. It’s in that environment that I am able to take photographs that I like.”
