The two incredible pencil drawings and one etching by Naglaa Ezzat of Egypt are haunting. They speak to the condition of women in many countries. The large drawing, Egypt, portrays a beautiful but angry mother in front of an inverted pyramid. She is intensely focused on something other than her disappearing daughter who is falling into the abyss of a whirlpool below her. The second, smaller drawing, Fear, shows a woman trapped by her fear, afraid of someone or something. Both pieces show a mastery of her technique. The flowing lines and soft shading create a mysterious mood in which fantasy and reality intersect. In the etching, Landscape, we see, “… an imaginary world where all the lonely people live.” Naglaa’s inherent style is the use of sinewy-like roots which swirl and entwine – embodying struggle - similar, to the ones which envelope the girl in Fear.
