"In her latest solo exhibition 'Cinderella Tales' which opened 16 Feb at Mashrabia Gallery, Egyptian artist Shayma Kamel tackles disparities between representation and reality in contemporary Egyptian society.
In mixed media canvases hanging across the Mashrabia Gallery walls, Shayma Kamel attempts to capture contradictions between reality and childhood fantasies of fairytale princesses.
Kamel is a prominent, and prolific, contemporary visual artist based in Cairo with numerous participations in both local exhibitions and beyond. Her artwork continues to tackle societal dynamics and engage in conversations about such topics as freedom, female struggles and Egyptian identity on canvases bedecked with her commitment to experimentation with various mediums and materials."
Exhibition runs until 20 March
8 Champollion Street, Downtown, Cairo
