nOURHAN EBRAHIM
Nourhan Ebrahim Exploring saturated colors and luminous light through her camera, Nourhan Ebrahim is drawn especially to nature and seeing the tiniest details through a macro lens. Based in the metropolis of Cairo, Nourhan finds meditation and peace in the massive cloudscapes above, microscopic details of plants and natural abstractions, and the sublime waterscapes of the Nile. Through her photography, she seeks to share the quiet and tranquility of an Egyptian environment so often overlooked. —D.N.
Within this chaotic messy world we live in, I want my artwork to be a chance to catch your breath and wonder. I've experimented in all kinds and fields of photography but always returned to nature photography… I've always seen tiny details with my bare eyes and that gave me a brief moment of peace and quiet since I was little. This exploration of the overlooked helps me engage more deeply with where I am in space and time. I chose macro and landscape specifically cloudescape as a means to document how I see the world around me. What fascinates me about clouds and skyscape is that it is always there. We are the ones who overlook it… —Nourhan Ebrahim
