Los Angeles-based artist Sherin Guirguis will unveil a new group of sculptures based on the nuances of heritage, home, and modern conceptions of identity. Sherin Guirguis references her Middle Eastern heritage and melds it with contemporary Western aesthetics to create powerful works of art. Her new group of sculptures—the final part in a three part series of works entitled El Biet El Kabeer—was inspired by water vessels, or Ollal, found in many older or traditional Egyptian households in the southern parts of the country. In Guiguis' work Arabic ornamentation and geometric patterns are are laser cut into aluminum panels, then mounted upon wood cores.
