TED: A project of peace, painted across 50 buildings | eL Seed

An artist embarks on a project to beautify the Zaraeeb community in Cairo by creating an anamorphic art piece. Initially perceived as a marginalized area, the project aims to change perceptions and foster unity. Through collaboration with local leaders and community members, the artist overcomes challenges and builds meaningful relationships. The project highlights the importance of understanding and connecting with unfamiliar communities, ultimately transforming both the artist's and the community's perspectives.

In what ways did the artist's understanding of the community evolve throughout the project?

What challenges did the artist face while working in the neighborhood?

What does the expression 'Nawartouna' mean, and how was it used by the community?
