Succubus

Succubus

We announce "Succubus" a solo exhibition by Youssef Ragheb As part of extended research projects, Youssef Ragheb in "Succubus" explores a mythical concept that reflects the complex relationship between desire and social control by reinterpreting the character of Succubus, a mythical demonic entity that recurs in many cultures throughout history. It represents the tension between repressed desire and societies striving to control it amidst the dominance of technological evolution. The exhibition reimagines the concept of the Succubus through visual experiments that delve into the nature of desire and the self in the digital age from the perspective of human heritage, considering the interaction with technology and its modern media. It also explores how ancient myths can form and adapt to the digital world in light of the growing digital dominance, which allows the broadcasting of the digital body to multiple places at the same time Join us for the opening night, on Sunday, February 9th, 2025, from 7 - 9 PM. The exhibition runs until Sunday, February 27th, 2025, from 4 - 9 pm except Fridays in Medrar. Address: Medrar, 10 Gamal Eldin Abo ElMahasen, 8th floor, Garden City, Cairo.
