Cairo, Egypt

We Will Meet Again in the Sky is a sculpture installation that intricately intertwines with the essence of ancient Egyptian mythology and the sacred landscape of the Giza Plateau. Through the portrayal of avian figures in a mesmerising swarm, Singer channels the divine symbolism deeply rooted in Egyptian cosmology, where gods and spirits are often depicted as anthropomorphic beings closely connected to natural elements. In ancient Egyptian belief systems, birds held profound significance as symbols of transcendence, freedom, and divine communication. The choice of avian forms in Singer’s installation not only pays homage to this rich iconography but also evokes the spirit of ancient deities such as Bennu, associated with rebirth and the sun. This collective behaviour reflects the interconnectedness of all living beings, mirroring the divine order believed to govern the natural world by ancient Egyptians. By situating the installation within the sacred precincts of the Giza Plateau, Singer forges a direct link between his artistic vision and the enduring legacy of ancient Egyptian civilisation.

"We Will Meet Again in the Sky" by artist Jake Michael Singer, displayed at the exhibition "Forever is Now 4" at the Pyramids of Giza.

I See, I See is an installation that connects with the desert sunlight and echoes the rituals of age-old Egyptian traditions related to deities of light. A large eye of Horus/Ra, composed of thousands of graduated optical lenses, will be placed between the viewer and the landscape of the Pyramids of Giza, becoming an outlook for unexpected visions. Gazing through the structure during the day, the viewer will see the pyramids upside down. At two times only during the day – the moments of sunrise and sunset – the structure will become a kind of ritual device, gathering the desert light and the solar sphere in each individual lens, marking the appointment with the two forms of the sun as in ancient Egyptian rituals.

"I See, I See" by artist Federica Di Carlo, displayed at the exhibition "Forever is Now 4" at the Pyramids of Giza.
