Photographs and artwork

Photographers and artists of Cairo

We are telling the story of how Cairo shops for food: the chains, the baqals, the kiosks, and the map of where they all are. It is a story made of numbers, and it is missing your pictures. Send us photographs or artwork of the grocery experience in this city. Your name is on everything we publish.

For example

  • Someone buying tomatoes.
  • A woman comparing two packets of pasta.
  • Or surprise us. You know this city better than any brief we could write.
