Artist's Statement
Moiz Street
Charcoal on paper

Moiz Street was recently restored as part of a program
to preserve the monuments and buildings of Islamic
Cairo. While not as well known as some of the other
treasures of Egypt the area between Bab al Nasr and Bab
Zuweila is truly one of the wonders of the world.
I have spent many happy days wandering its streets,
drawing, drinking tea, and talking with the always
friendly and hospitable Egyptians.
This kind of restoration project represents for me 'The
Road Ahead' – conserving the past, looking to the
future, celebrating the present in a city full of life
and culture.
