==Biography==
Mojadidi was born and grew up in Jacksonville, Florida. His father went back to Afghanistan each summer to help fight the Soviet occupation as a combat surgeon. Mojadidi visited Afghanistan for the first time in 1990, when he made a visit to the front lines with his uncle, Sibghatullah Mojaddedi, the prominent Afghan mujahid who was once president of Afghanistan and has been a member of its upper parliament.
Mojadidi visited Afghanistan again in 2001 after the fall of the Taliban, and moved there in 2003 to work with an NGO involved in efforts to rebuild the country.〔 In recent years he has been active in Kabul's art scene and has been credited for playing a crucial role in its resurgence. Mojadidi curated a 2012 Documenta exhibit in Kabul which showcased 12 contemporary Afghan artists,〔 and has worked with young Afghans in graffiti art.〔 At times he has been critical of Afghanistan's reliance on foreign aid. He has said that "a truly sustainable approach would probably be for Afghan artists to form collectives and organise exhibitions on their own initiative."〔
