Since 2005 Marwan has been exploring Cairo’s urban structure through experimental interventions in which function is not dictated by design but rather responds to the spontaneity of a constantly mutating streetscape. His observations focus on the spatial manifestation of social habits. Marwan currently investigates small-scale informal additions to the city fabric caused by Cairo’s unprecedented growth. He presented his work at the Symposium on Kharita Urban Trajectories 2009.
