ABOUT ME
I am a lighting and scenography designer based in Cairo. Beginning with theatre decor implementation in 2000, my practice has grown across stage lighting, sets, costumes, props, art exhibitions and live events.
I connect creative design with the practical work of bringing a production into the space, with responsibilities tailored to each project.
