Scenes
The Egyptian environment is distinguished by its various cultural, social, and geographical uniqueness and elements which vary from one place to the other. This approach for visions of scenes is clear in this exhibition through the actual living inside the aspects of the Egyptian environment which played an effective role touching my sensual and conscious in the direction of spotting human and social behavior connecting with life and human relations which are considered as my main tool in following up the forms and elements of artistic expression inside the components of the Egyptian environment.
The Egyptian environment contains various symbols, elements, as well as historic and civil artistic forms carrying the characteristics and features of cultural uniqueness since it is considered as the real stimulator for discovering new features and dimensions characterized with change and modernization in forming the artistic scene. For example, there are the moral and material cultural elements such as costumes, instruments, various architectural forms, streets, lanes, markets, squares, and gardens. Moreover, there are other forms and elements such as humane, man and beast, botanical characters or other details such as marks and forms or the moral and material symbols which intertwine and move parallel to each other and load it with various layers and levels in the direction of the composition of the scene with parts of which covering parts of the scene.
Hence, each of these layers actually accumulate inside the fabric of the same scene and due to culture, move through the historical scene of Egypt's ancient, Coptic, Islamic, folk, and modern arts carrying new forms and components which accumulate in the buildup of the formation phases of the contemporary Egyptian scene.
