ABOUT

Samuel Georgy, b.1994 in Cairo and graduated from École de design et Haute école d'art du Valais (EDHEA) with a Bachelor in Visual Arts. He is currently studying at the Städelschule. His installation, video, performance and curatorial work approach with a quirky humor the themes of self-sufficiency, the creative arrangement of energies, and the training of the artist in his movement and his heritage vis-à-vis a culture of a given society.
