Description
This 1982 silk screen print by Medhat Nasr reflects the artist’s early exploration of abstraction, structure, and symbolic language. The composition combines bold geometric forms, layered textures, and fragmented imagery arranged in a dynamic grid-like structure.
Using printmaking techniques in silk screen, Nasr builds a complex visual rhythm through overlapping shapes, typographic elements, and contrasting colors such as red, black, green, and white. The arrangement of repeated motifs and graphic symbols suggests an architectural or urban influence, where visual fragments interact to form a cohesive composition.
The artwork demonstrates the artist’s interest in visual storytelling through abstraction, transforming simple shapes into a structured yet expressive composition. It reflects the experimental spirit of early contemporary printmaking in the region and highlights Nasr’s ability to balance graphic design with artistic narrative.
