In the Upper Gallery
Re-membering Egypt: In Search of Osiris


By Hakim Raquib



In capturing
the photographic images of Egypt Raquib refers
to the allegory of the myth of Osiris, an Egyptian God that has been
dismembered by his brother and scattered throughout the land. The Exhibition
attempts to “assemble” Egypt highlighting the physical natural beauty of its
people and the landscape.



In the Lower Gallery:

theatrical stage, where certain characters and symbolic objects are combined.

Janette Brossard’s images are extracted from everyday life, public places, and
domestic environments. Curated by Latin Art Space.
