  • The image features a layered composition where a photograph of an adult man is superimposed over a scene with two children. The man is depicted flexing his muscles, highlighting a strong, defined physique. The background shows a modern building, hinting at an urban setting. The children, positioned behind the man, also appear to be posing, mimicking a strong stance. The overall tone of the image combines elements of strength and playfulness, merging different subjects to create a unique artistic representation. Egyptian Photographer Ibrahim Ahmed Questions Masculinity Sama Waly · July 2022
  • The image depicts a nude figure seated with their back to the viewer, captured in a monochromatic charcoal style. The figure has a slightly turned profile, showcasing a sense of contemplation. The body is rendered with soft, flowing lines, contrasting against the darker, shadowy background. The light appears to create a dramatic play of shadows, emphasizing the contours and curves of the figure. The overall mood is introspective and artistic, focusing on the human form and its relationship with light and darkness. Youssef Abdelke: the Naked Against the Dead Emmanuel Daydé · October 2017
