Malak El Shazly’s art echoes the mystery and magic of twentieth-century Surrealism in its tantalizing array of indecipherable motifs. Viewers of El Shazly’s work thereby enter into a journey into the depths of these motifs as they navigate these enticing compositions.
Born in 1990 in Cairo, El Shazly has enjoyed the showcase of her multimedia collages and paintings at various group shows across Cairo, including the American University in Cairo’s Sharjah Gallery, Townhouse Gallery, Darb 1718, The Gallery and Tache Art. A group exhibition in Dubai in 2011 was the artist’s international debut.
