"Dreaming of a New Dawn"
mixed media and oil
80 x 80cm
7000 LE (US$ 1170) sold

We live those days in dreaming of a new dawn, bright hope of a new era. For this nation that holds different classes showing the true fabric of Egypt.

In my paintings I rely on the symbolism of imagination. Imagining this wild horse running to the new light of a new dawn.

Whilst the young strong Egypt is being symbolized by the beautiful woman holding the key of life, a happy life. She embraces the old Egyptian civilization where the dove of peace lives waiting for the bright new era to begin.

In brief, this painting has turned out differently from the way I had envisaged it, but due to the inspiration of life the painting took its own course. Experience has taught us many things, we are living that experience.
