Squeezed Culture

Personal Exhibition El Gezira Art Center, Cairo, Egypt. 2007

Globalization left no space for identity to emerge, cultures are mingled and squeezed together to the extent that you don’t know where one ends and the other begins. We became a matrix repetition, a statistic, in the modern compressed metal urban civilization. Numb is the way we survive our daily life.

15 balloons trapped inside compressed metal construction in the middle of the room, 2 video screens in the opposing wall, 65 light bulbs (red–yellow–green-blue) distributed along the parameters of the room and changing from one color to the other every 30 sec.
