Egypt exhibition design + interpretive writing + publication design
‘Egypt: The Time of Pharaohs’ reveals the mysteries of the great pharaohs and explores 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, with the original graphics created as a collaborative co-production for the Royal BC Museum in Victoria, Canada, in 2018. For its 2019 U.S. premiere at the Cincinnati Museum Center, I adapted the complete exhibition texts and graphics for U.S. audiences. Since then, I have continued to scale and adapt the exhibition graphics for subsequent smaller iterations at the Natural History Museum of Utah [2021] and the Denver Museum of Nature & Science [2022].
The accompanying publication directly translates the touring exhibition’s spatial narrative into a two-dimensional format. Each spread is treated as a curated space that uses full-bleed photography to create an immersive reader experience, while the strategic placement of artifact photography against neutral backgrounds emphasizes their historical significance.
