Amr Al Ngmah

Amr Al Ngmah is a Yemeni artist born in Alexandria, Egypt and currently living in Cairo. A self-taught artist, he started painting at a young age and became increasingly interested in experimenting with different materials, from the traditional to the digital. He uses software programs and hardware computer parts to study the relationship between the digital age, community, architecture, culture, religion, science, and medicine, and their resulting impact both analytically and descriptively.

Al Ngmah uses electronic circuits from various devices and computers (such as motherboards, ICs, and CPUs). He collects, dismantles, studies, and recycles them in his artwork while maintaining their electronic properties. By liberating them from their original functions, he introduces them into concepts and dimensions that fit into his artistic vision, for it is the beauty of ideas that he relies on. Additionally, he has a special interest in conceptual work, installation, and digital media that reflect the culture of the region and his personal vision.
