“The Cairo Sketches” are architectural explorations using Midjourney, an AI text to image generator. The purpose of this art project is to re-investigate the Islamic geometry using more recent mathematical principles. As an Egyptian architect I found it thrilling to apply these concepts over the Mamluk building’s Facade in Cairo.

The current global creative scene is in an ongoing debate about artistic authenticity and ownership. However, I find a great freedom in using Ai text to image generators. The new tools are providing a medium of freedom. Freedom from physicality, from functionality and from modules.
