the air is subtle, various and sweet
2021 / 0 hr 35 minMixing found footage from Egyptian television, with footage of two dancers shot on the Wanstead Flats nature reserve in east London, Adham Faramawy's work considers the body’s relationship to ideas of ‘the land’, plant taxonomy, and ideas of roots/heritage. The film relates this exploration to the passing of the artists’ father during the pandemic, and their relationship, particularly their father’s strong affinity as an artist and musician with his falahi (rural, agricultural and working class) roots and his home town Toukh, north of Cairo.
