Iconic photographer Steve McCurry’s exhibition “A Common Faith: Steve McCurry’s Travels through the Muslim World” opened in Malaysia on January 7 in association with Epson. The exhibition running until April 8 is being hosted at the Islamic Arts Museum in Kuala Lumpur.

The 80 large format images document the more candid, every day images of Islamic believers such as a foodstall holder reading the Qur’an and a brickmaker at prayer during a short break from production. McCurry has always been interested in people and the images here are designed to show Muslim people as individuals going about their lives.

On January 7 the public was treated to the Exhibition Launch and Public Talk with McCurry and on January 8 he held a Photographic Workshop with 50 students imparting some of the tips he’s learned in the past 30 years.
