Revival of Egyptian Ancestors

Ahmed Nofal also known as Nofal O-one Graff realized a great artistic production depicting a royal ancient Egyptian figure twisted with elements of contemporary street life including the iconic vintage Volkswagen Kombis and which are commonly observed in the neighborhood as active means of daily transportation until today.

Faisal St is a main transit axis in Greater Cairo located a few kilometers away from the Giza Pyramids and which is also very close to where Nofal lives, a prolific street artist famous for his ancient Egyptian characters always communicating a message of past and future illustrated as colorful quirky portraits complementing and reflecting upon the local kitsch surrounding community. 

The mural was self-financed by the artist and co-sponsored by DUCO - Empowering Urban Appeal.
