The Green, the Street and the Scent of Life
I am fascinated by the green alleys in the streets of Cairo, by the plants, little trees along or in front of buildings. This stands for more than only the desire for green. I started to take a closer look at the various kinds of potted plants in the streets, which I could find almost everywhere. This spreads a gentleness in the streets and a specific kind of intimacy which has captivated me so much. But I believe that it comprises different levels:the past, and today’s life even the feeling of the people living and working in the city of Cairo. (Barbara Armbruster, 2011)
