Last Night "24 January 2011"


The 2011 revolution in Egypt started with marches, demonstrations and civil resistance on January 25.

“Down with corruption, down with autocracy, down with dictators.” These were the chants by an increasing number of Egyptians demanding the overthrow of President Hosni Mubarak, who had been in power for 30 years.

January 25
On a national holiday to commemorate the police force, thousands of Egyptians took to the streets of downtown Cairo, calling it a “day of rage”. Similar protests were reported in other towns across the country.
After a few hours of relative calm, police and demonstrators clashed with police who fired tear gas and used water cannon against demonstrators.







During a few days of free time at the end of May 2024, I began experimenting with different methods of composition.
As my experiments continued, the results began with some stories about the kiosk 'shop' on the road in a nocturnal mood, with a collection of cool-looking items created with no immediate purpose in mind other than arriving at one conclusion "An Egyptian night in the winter of 2011."
The design below is the result of that.
