Search for identity
The work reflects the continuing tension which affect the human during his search of identity (which is the search for the special features of personality) or (which is to search the attributes of the nation and consolidate the idea of belonging) in a great similarity with the encounter of the electronic life and the bifurcation of paths( hyper links) that take the viewer to an important question - Is it possible that the technology will be the general form for the identity of human beings?! Or is it a way of knowing the identity ?!... And like working trip search for identity, searching for radio stations in the radio set ……..
