Unoriginal Yet Original Postcards Series
The structure of these postcards follows the basis of the Makhtout theme under the Makhtout project by Sherine Salla. Some of the manuscripts that inspired me had a postcard mindset, illustrating places with iconic elements and inviting people to them. My contemporary interpretation of this mindset is creating postcards of grand Attaba, the busiest, most lively local district in Cairo. It’s an all-you-can-find kind of place.
Makhtout Workshop Posters
From Maktout Workshop: “Who Stole the Chicken?” — a riddle from a 1970s Egyptian zine narrating a poem about a stolen chicken. The poem riddle posters and its four suspects—lion, fox, snake, thief—were inspired by the design of decorative manuscripts, floral and geometric patterns. The structure of these postcards follows the basis of the Makhtout theme under the Makhtout project by Sherine Salla.

Burning Questions Initiative Poster
This poster is my contribution to the Burning Questions initiative by Amyra Radwan and Sina
Gösele. Their project invites questions about diversity, inclusion, and pluralism within the realm of design and theory. I wanted to communicate a personal struggle I was facing at that time, and still partly do, so I raised a question and inner fight: How can I shape my creative, daily bread as a visionary?
