Youssef Nabil

Ghada Amer, New York

A hand-coloured silver gelatin print by Youssef Nabil depicting Ghada Amer in New York, rendered in the artist's signature painterly aesthetic that evokes the nostalgic glamour of vintage cinema and early photography. Nabil's delicate application of colour breathes warmth and intimacy into the monochromatic base, bathing his subject in soft, luminous tones that feel at once timeless and deeply personal. The work reflects Nabil's ongoing exploration of identity, beauty, and the poetic intersection of the past and present through his uniquely tactile photographic process.
