Mohammed in Skoura Oasis, 2022

Every Sunday morning, Mohammed goes out very early to collect wood to fire the pottery he has crafted that week. Kilito says: ‘I have visited many oases, where I have made strong connections with their inhabitants. I was able to understand this rich environment but also its glaring realities. I realised that desertification, recurrent droughts and fires, changes in agricultural practices, overexploitation of natural resources, rural exodus, and the sharp drop in the water table are all imminent threats to the existence of oases’
