Collage Workshop At Zawya Cinema / Nabeela Roshdy

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:

In this workshop, we will use a selection from the archive of Zawya Cinema in addition to a huge amount of magazines and create a collage about cinema. It could be about our favorite film or a character from a film that we loved.We will also be able to digitally scan Zawya’s posters displayed in the cafeteria, print them during the workshop, and use them in the poster we create.

ABOUT NABEELA ROSHDY:

Nabeela Roshdy is a Cairo-based visual artist and art director whose practice moves between analog collage, mixed media, branding, and editorial design. Guided by curiosity and an experimental spirit, she builds layered visual worlds from fragments of her surroundings—cutting, reassembling, and composing stories that reflect on human behavior.. Influenced by the spontaneity of Dadaism and the freedom of eclectic art practices, her work blurs the line between fine art and design.

Educated in Graphic Design at the German University in Cairo, Nabeela’s path has unfolded across creative spaces in Egypt and Saudi Arabia—shaping her visual language through experience as both designer and art director. From Moshtarak Studios to her current role leading art direction at Le Lab Art Gallery, she moves between commercial and artistic realms.

Her work has been exhibited in several group shows, including Shababco Vol.7: Pop Culture (L’app Art Gallery, 2023), Midnight 00:00 (L’app Art Gallery, 2022), Connection Cairo (Arkan Plaza, 2019), and It Seemed Like a Good Idea (Margo Veillon Gallery, 2018). Nabeela has led collage workshops with Saad Studio and co-instructed a collaborative workshop with Saad Studio and Zawya. She continues to expand her creative dialogue through international workshops such as 100 Poster Battle: Sharing Cultures (2020/2023) and 100/100 Best Arabic Posters with Tim Henger (2019).
