have been collecting the garbage of Cairo and sorting it in their own neighborhood for decades. 他们一直在开罗收集垃圾，而且已经在各自的社区整理了数十年。
They have developed one of the most efficient and highly profitable systems on a global level. 他们已经开发了在全球水平范围内最高效，最高利润的系统
Still, the place is perceived as dirty, marginalized and segregated 1 但即便如此，这个地方仍旧被视为肮脏的，被边缘化的隔离区

So my initial idea was to create an anamorphic piece, 所以我最初的想法是创建一个变形模块
a piece that you can only see from one vantage point. 一个你只能从一个有力的角度来看的模块
I wanted to challenge myself artistically 2 by painting over several buildings 我想通过在几座建筑上作画来挑战我自己在艺术上的作为
and having it only fully 3 visible from one point on the Muqattam Mountain. 并使人们在Muqattam山上能看到其全景的方式
The Muqattam Mountain is the pride of the community. Muqattam山是全社区的骄傲
This is where they built the St. Simon Monastery 4, 这是他们建立圣西蒙修道院的地方
a 10,000-seat cave church that they carved into the mountain itself. 一个内部有10000坐席的洞穴教堂
So, the first time I stood on top of the mountain and I looked at the neighborhood, 我第一次站在山顶时，俯瞰着整个社区
I asked myself, how on earth will I convince all those owners to let me paint on their buildings? 我问我自己，如何才能说服那些房屋的主人，让他们允许我在其建筑上画画呢？
And then Magd came. Magd is a guide from the Church. 后来Magd来了。Magd是教堂的向导
He told me the only person I needed to convince was Father Samaan, who is the leader of the community. 他告诉我，我唯一要去说服的人是神父Samaan，他是这个社区的领导
But to convince Father Samaan, I needed to convince Mario, 但是想要说服他，我要先说服Mario
who is a Polish artist who moved to Cairo 20 years ago and who created all the artwork of the Cave Church. 他是20年前搬到开罗的波兰艺术家，他创建了所有在洞穴教堂的艺术品
I am really grateful to Mario. He was the key of the project. 我非常感激Mario，他是我这个项目的关键
He managed to get me a meeting with Father Samaan, and surprisingly, he loved the idea. 他帮我约见了神父Samaan，惊奇的是，他很喜欢我的想法
He asked me about where I painted before and how I will make it happen. 他问我以前在哪儿作过画，以及我将如何实现这个计划
And he was mainly concerned by what I was going to write. 他最关心的是我要写的内容。
