Habashtakanat Magazine Issue #2

Born in 2017 initially as a space for Lama Ahmed to express her relationship with the chaotic and tenacious Cairo, Habashtakanat slowly became what it was set out to be from the beginning: a documentation of the visible and an exploration of its hidden meaning. Each issue is a jungle of words and photographs encapsulating living, being, grieving and commuting in the city.The focus shifts in the second issue from the streets to the people and how Cairo is redefined through each person Lama meets.
