“When you take solitary walks among the rocks on bare mountains, collecting the dry branches that have fallen from small trees, following traces of desert animals, sensing the humming of insects … it is at that moment that you faintly hear the murmur of the city as a fading echo in your mind. You begin to fear that you have stepped on a rock or a blade of grass that has blocked the door of an insect’s home and disturbed a creature with your intrusion on his path. At this moment you are overcome with the feeling of being at one with nature, so you begin to shed your layers, piece by piece, and commence with creating an artwork.”  

- Mohammed Ahmed Ibrahim
