@anassharkawwy Also it's worth thinking about documenting life in Egypt on a more...deeper level.
As someone living in England, i don't hear much about Egypt these days. Unless i log onto some alt-tech "conspiracy" content creators, which is filled with doom, gloom and shrooms, i would very much like to see more citizen journalism engaged. Topics such as current living situation, economic situation, down to earth conversations with fellow Egyptians...you know things like this, as well as your growth as a photographer.
Do you know the function of an artist in society? I once read a very good magician book (i was 18 years a performing magician) titled "THE STRUCTURAL CONCEPTION OF MAGIC" by Arturo De Ascanio, one of the forefathers of modern close up card magic in Spain back probably 50 years ago. In the book there was an interview with a friend of his and they were discussing this very question.
I like Pablo Picasso's quote on this subject: "The mission of the artist is to convince the world of his lie". All art forms are a conspiracy against the lay...whether it be a photography, a video, a blog article, a piece of music, a piece of illustration, whatever. But in the endeavour of convincing the world of our lies we refine our natural instincts and authentic self expression. Picasso also said that "art is a lie that helps us see the truth". The truth of your expression, your perspective and how you project that outwards.
Hoping this gives you some food for thought.
That makes so much sense to me. Documenting life in Egypt is something I always wanted to do, especially that Egypt has a lot of beautiful spots most people never heard of. I'm still knowing more about the content I'd love to do for a lifetime and in the meantime I'm just sharing my days and thoughts with the world. Again, thanks for continuously guiding me through photography and the Hive Ecosystem, I really appreciate that ♥️
