These pages represent both a form of artistic expression and a rebellion against the printed word (even if it is my own), and against the piled-up copies of my first book which stare at me everyday (two years after its publication).
These are scanned images of pages from the one of the two copies of my book which I have worked on. I asked people who mean much to me to flip through the pages, and to choose words that have some meaning or relevance to each person. I then highlighted these words and built a collage of cut-out images, or old photographs, adding color with pencils, crayons and oil pastels.
There are still many pages left; it is a work in progress.

تعلن هذه اللوحات بأبجدية الفن عن تمردي على الكلمة المطبوعة (حتى وإن كانت كلماتي)، وتمردي على النسخ المتراكمة من كتابي الأول، التي تحدق بي كل يوم (سنتان بعد النشر).
هذه اللوحات مأخوذة من صفحات إحدى نسختين لكتابي عملت عليهما. حيث طلبت من المقربين تصفح الكتاب، واختيار صفحات تضم كلمات ذات معاني خاصة بالنسبة لكل منهم. أبرزتُ هذه الكلمات وبنيت لوحاتي الفنية حولها، باستخدام الصور الفوتوغرافيه القديمة، والرسومات، مع إضافات لونية بأقلام الرصاص والطباشير وألوان الباستيل الزيتية.
ما زال أمامي العديد من الصفحات، التي تنتظر أن أعالجها.. إنه عمل حي ومستمر.

It was very interesting for me to read the article. Thank you for it. I like such themes and anything connected to them. I definitely want to read more on that site soon. BTW, pretty good design you have at that site, but what do you think about changing it every few months?
