Local Star

Photo series, Cairo, 2009-2010

This photo series started with the following announcement, inviting people who were dreaming of being stars: “Kindly attend the photo session in the most splendid look”. In an empty studio room, each of them chose a pose that either reflected their perception or their ideal star. Then they expressed their vision of what their star poster should look like. They choose the direction of the digital background (shapes, colors, and atmosphere).
