"In April 2023, I woke up on the shores of the Red Sea to a golden sun. Hazy blue mountains slowly appeared, rising from the water, a still capsule of time traveling through the warmth of the visible light spectrum, of which I fell asleep , submerged in water, beneath shadowed mountains, shielded from the deafening blast of Beirut port explosion on the fourth of august 2020. Returning to the Dahab-Nuweibaa road, I encountered an ochre and burnt umber desert landscape."
