“The Rosary / Sibha as a Communal Sculpture”. 2007. Installation with painted pottery and steel chains. 99 beads 12 inches each, 120 feet overall-length.
This installation was built for the rooftop of the American University in Cairo in a big collective effort with students, faculty, and the public. The installation uses symbols from different religions (99 beads as in Islam; cross-shaped cut-outs as used by the Copts) hereby serving as a bridge between the East and the West.
