The Pharaoh Sees All
Massive statues adorning the sides of buildings make you feel as if you’re constantly under their watchful gaze, regardless of your whereabouts. However, this scenario takes an intriguing twist from a unique perspective. From this particular angle, the pharaoh seems to possess a pair of eyes far more technologically advanced than the era in which he reigned. The enigma lies in the presence of a strategically placed CCTV camera nestled within a recess, aligning perfectly with the statue’s eye level.
This clever placement imbues the timeless statue with a contemporary twist, blurring the lines between ancient and modern surveillance. In an era where technology and history converge, this image serves as a striking reminder of the seamless integration of the old and the new, all from the vantage point of an artist’s lens.
