“Out of my interest in my artistic project in the field of photographic art in the Egyptian heritage in general and the popular heritage in particular, I have chosen for patients this name (green money). This choice does not mean expressing in a visual equivalent the poetic content of money, as much as it borrows the linguistic interpretation (of green money), which is appropriate According to the theme of the show, “green money is one of the colours of popular money, which also includes red and white money, and green money is characterised by singing stories of fortune, fatalism, and intimidation as a popular belief that governs the march of the relationship between men and women in feelings of love, love, and marriage.”
