Omar was born in Barcelona to a Catalan mother and a Tunisian father. Growing up, he moved between two cultures, an experience which shaped his perception of contrasts, emotions, and the subtle differences that define people and places.
After graduating in Economics, he spent six years working as a camera operator on football documentaries alongside some of the greatest athletes in history. This taught him discipline and observation, as well as how to capture authenticity in motion.
He then attended the Cinema and Audiovisual School of Catalonia (ESCAC), where he earned a Master’s in Cinematography and began to refine his artistic voice. Based in Barcelona, Omar specialises in music videos, commercials and films.
Through his work, he explores themes of identity and belonging, and the search for truth in images. He finds meaning in moments where light and emotion transcend language.
