We do not leave Hamra
Walid Sadek
We do not leave Hamra is an installation in which one component is an image advertised on a billboard on the corner of Hamra and Sadat street, and another is the accompanying text published in the project’s catalogue. This work proposes the idea that although we enter Hamra street, we probably never leave.
