He felt like an experimental rat, Doctors experimenting new types of medicine on him. He can't stand working. He kept losing conscious , drowning from fear and stress when people were trying to isolate him to avoid infection. But his wife is trying to be his container in his painful nights. When he wakes up crying from his pain she gives him love, having faith in a miracle that can cure sever illness, love let chronology of harmony and system in the human body, we just must learn how to love and containment. The painting intended to develop a better understandable view to the silent pain inside the patient of Virus C showing his body like it’s under supersonic waves, showing the place of pain, symptoms, even his feelings, the love and rescue he needed to fight the illness that will come only by being surrounded .people's support and love .

Mid summer nights play:)Exhibition in Cairo opera house ) The design is based on Mahmoud Darwish poem (The dice player ) I saw that shakspear and Mahmoud Darwish sharing same concept summarized in poem Verses that says : I am a dice player, Sometimes I win and sometimes I lose I played no role in who I became and by chance that I saw a pale moon like a lemon, flirting with sleepless girls I am but a throw of a dice between a predator and a prey I earned more awareness not to be happy with my moonlit night but to witness the massacre Love! What are you? How much are you what you are, and what you are not. O Love! Blow on us thunderstorms\ We love you when we love by chance You are the luck of the poor The expert lover says in his secret: Love is our sincere lie and when his lover hears that, she says: love comes and goes as lightning and thunderstorms I have no role in what I became or will become... It is luck. Luck has no name We might call it the blacksmith of our fates call it the sky mail carrier call it the carpenter of the newborn's crib and the coffin of the deceased or call it the custodian of gods in legends in which we wrote the texts for them and hid behind the Olympic ... It is the misfortune of the author that fantasy is reality on theatre floors
