About me

Mr. Reda is a well-known visual artist in the Egyptian artistic arena. His background as a
painter as well as his experiments with photography forms a very solid artistic foundation
for his artwork – seen in his use of composition, lighting, and color.
And he is famous for his bilateral dialogues with other artists, from his Egyptian colleges or
from abroad, he has built with the cooperation with those artists a lot of exciting visual
dialogues.
Mr. Reda's work reflects an image of his social and urban environment in Egypt with its
many contradictions, beauty, and ugliness, wealth and poverty, modernity, and
underdevelopment. His images are created with a local Egyptian eye but are adept at
communicating with the international art scene. Mr. Reda's work has been exhibited at many
venues within Egypt as well as around the world, and he is a recipient of various artistic
awards, which, together with the interest of art critics in his work, is evidence of his high
profile as an artistic talent.
Reda's artwork includes several visual mediums, such as painting, experimental
photography, installation, and interactive works.
His involvement in the curating and management of many arts and cultural activities locally
and internationally reflects his interest in promoting the language of creative dialogue and
developing mechanisms for artistic interaction.
