PROJECT ANKH- BERLIN

In an attempt to embrace the change that Egypt is currently going through, our main aim was to fuse history with Egypt’s present in one activation that inspired those who experienced it to visit Egypt. 

Ten of Egypt’s best known modern artists flew to Berlin to use giant Ankhs as blank canvasses to represent their vision of the condition of Egypt today. In Berlin, we organised a 2 week workshop for the artists to work together and inspire each other. Ibrahim Eslam was one of the artists for the “ ANKH PROJECT” and used fluorescent and black light to give the Ankh continuos presence at the streets of Berlin. We place the resulting Ankh artworks in outdoor spaces across the city. This started a non-political conversation with Berliners about Egypt and drew subtle attention to Egypt’s sponsorship of the ITB.
