Ahmad El-Ganayni, painter and poet

Emancipated women, this is what we can discover
here: their feminity no longer camouflaged but tenderly revealed ! The
"cherries of liberty" become visible in this painting within a painting
that pretends to depict women in the countryside, working women, peasant
women. Today, they bury their longing under a cloak - but in El-Ganayni's
dream, they are already liberated. |

| The winds of change are bringing terror and hope. The yellow face of
the god of tempests, an evil jealous man, appears in the thunderstorm,
hanging in the sky like an oversized moon. Distanced and too close, at
the same time, he watches the fate of humans, the fate of women and men
while a galopping camel or horse passes through the night. The storm is
an ogre, a dark black bear that fills the world of humans with darkness
and fright but the light of the sun and the aspirations of the living will
overwhelm this frightening darkness. We see a man watching. We see a woman
grieving above her dead sister. |
