View Larger Image and Additional Photos of Mohamed Zakaria SoltanAbout Mohamed Zakaria Soltan : An Egyptian graphic artist and designer who loves working in the field of digital art and poster design. He is also an academic who teaches visual identity, sign & wayfinding systems, and poster design. He has taught in many faculties of applied arts in Egypt in the field of “advertising”. He is interested in conceptualism as well as art and its relationship to digital technology, and despite He loves traditional arts and arts with historical legacy and heritage, such as ancient Egyptian civilization and the arts in old China and so on.
Design is life in all its meanings - designers design from life to life.
Art for galleries, museums but design is art of life and for life.
The designer must learn science in order to be able to create effective design for life, while art can stem from feelings and sensations, and it can be primitive and innate, and it should not be closely linked to science.
