STORYLINE:
A batch of artworks transformed from factory waste was displayed at the Alamein Art Festival in Egypt's resort city of New Alamein.
The one-month festival, which kicked off on July 21, seeks to promote the concept of environmental sustainability through art.
In an industrial district close to Egypt's northern coast, colored lights and nine massive luminous artworks made of factory waste materials by seven recycling artists brightened the night.
The artworks, mostly made of scraps of iron, plastic and wood, are installed and exhibited at the first edition of the Alamein Art Festival, organized by Art D'Egypte, an Egyptian platform for art and heritage.
