Egypt Exhibition Design [and adaption for north american Audiences] + interpretative writing
The travelling exhibition premiered in the U.S. at the Cincinnati Museum Center in 2019. I first worked on this project for The Royal BC Museum in Victoria, Canada, in 2018 and adapted the exhibition graphics for smaller versions of the exhibition at the Natural History Museum of Utah in 2021 and the Denver Museum of Nature & Science in 2022.
‘Egypt — The Time of Pharaohs’ reveals the mysteries of the great pharaohs and explores the daily life in ancient Egypt. Stunning artefacts, vivid multimedia spaces, hands-on elements, films, animations and a 3D-hologram of a mummy shed new light on the complexities of one of the most advanced and pre-eminent civilizations in the world.
The exhibition architecture was designed by Formation muenchen; the design of the exhibition graphics was a co-production with their graphic design team. The exhibition was co-curated by Christian Tietze from Weimar and Christian Bayer from the Roemer-and Pelizaeus Museum.

The accompanying book to the touring exhibition ‘Egypt — The Time of Pharaohs’ combines grand Egyptian myths with detailed knowledge of hieroglyphs and iconography to reveal ancient Egypt in all its complexity. The contributors — all leading scholars working at the cutting edge of Egyptology — incorporate the latest findings in archaeological research in their vividly written essays.
