Visual artist Aly Roshdy will open his solo exhibition "Inside Out" at Sofia Green Gallery in Sofia, Bulgaria, with a vernissage on May 7. The show runs through May 21 and features a series of paintings and collages inspired by the artist's travels, each depicting a specific place seen through a window. Roshdy describes the window as both a literal frame for observing different cultures and a symbolic lens for documenting his journeys, capturing moments of silence and contemplation.
The exhibition matters because it highlights the work of an artist who bridges classical and contemporary practices across video, painting, drawing, and photography. Roshdy, a lecturer and researcher at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Cairo, brings an international perspective to Sofia's art scene, and his works have been presented at global forums. The show offers viewers a chance to engage with intimate, travel-inspired visual narratives that explore memory and interpretation.
