One of the activities of the experimental workshop was “Creative Thinking and Image Archive,” which was conducted under the supervision of the artist Shady El-Noshokaty, professor in the Visual Arts Program at the American University in Cairo, and organized by Dr. Iman Al-Banna, and Dr. Anne Marie Professors of Environmental and Applied Design, in collaboration with the National Library of South Australia, which was held at Medrar for Contemporary Art from June 19-20, 2019.
