Cairo-based artist Nermine Hammam’s latest work includes pastiches of Egypt’s recent civil unrest, created by combining hand-painted subjects with digitally manipulated photographs. Her monograph Upekkha (2011) – which includes “The Break”, featuring two Egyptian soldiers in Tahrir Square reset against a fantasy landscape – is on show in Cairo: Year One at the Mosaic Rooms, London. Other works on display include Unfolding (2012), a series that blends photographs of police brutality after Egypt’s 2011 revolution with landscapes in classical Japanese style.
