Developed on the outskirts of Tangier between 2014 and 2016, The Red Square explores the visual and symbolic intersections of painting, photography, and architecture in spaces often deemed peripheral or culturally insignificant. Responding to the aesthetic vocabulary of red suburban facades, the series draws on both chance encounters and painterly intention to create images that blur the boundaries between mediums. Referencing Josef Albers and the historical role of public squares as sites of gathering and change, The Red Square proposes the periphery not as marginal, but as a space of potential—where new forms of seeing, imagining, and assembling might emerge.
