Art as a bridge between two cultural areas

The Women's Museum Bonn describes the project as part of WE - Women in Exchange, where twelve female artists build bridges between the countries of Egypt and Germany. Central themes include being a woman, being a mother, heritage, mother tongue, tradition, and female identity. This thematic depth gives the exhibition a special authority and makes it a space for reflection, encounter, and cultural understanding.
