Video instillation
2020-2021


Halim accompanies Sayeda Zeinab, Cairo's protectress, around the city asking her if she is seeing the demolitions and urban displacements currently happening. In the video performance, the Sufi saint known for curing the blinds collects fabric from all over the place, and covers his eyes. The Sufi saint protects in her own maternal ways but still fails to stand against the demolitions.
