At a time when photos were still developed, and when one
still needed to wait for the film roll to finish before doing so, one time it
took the family forever to do so and when the photos were
developed, they were dominant red in color. So a friend explained “with time
the Kodak loses its blue”. Based on that concept, I went back to small digital
works done between 2000-2001 and another batch done in 2003 and eliminated the
blue (and green) to have them fully red in colors. The title of the series comes
from a song by Romeo Lahoud originally sang by Salwa Katrib “Khidni ma3ak”
(take me with you) specifically the time “matra7 ma lawn en azra2 ghab” (when
the color blue has vanished).
