FOREVER IS NOW .05
Forever is Now 05 invites viewers to explore the mythic and historical layers of the Giza plateau, allowing contemporary voices to reinterpret the meanings of endurance and legacy. As we walk among these timeless monuments, the exhibition asks: What stories will we leave behind? What truths and myths will define us in the future? In a world constantly transforming, the Pyramids stand as eternal witnesses, challenging us to consider how our present will be woven into the legends of tomorrow.
