Egyptian artist Moataz Nasr’s El Shaab figurines are among the sculptures on display at the Salsali Private Museum in Dubai’s Alserkal Avenue. Nasr’s sculptures were created in 2012 and, “though diminutive in size, Nasr’s sculptures are highly emotive, representing ­different religions, ethnicities and ­generations and, therefore, ­offering a cross section of Egypt’s population,” Anna Seaman writes in The National. The sculptures are small and placed on a shelf, Seaman describes, this leaves “their ­power is somewhat diminished – a possible parallel with the ­aftermath of the Tahrir Square protesters in 2011.”
