Geneva x Omar Al Sharif 


To commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (2018), Tarek created this mural. 

Several hundred meters from the UN Human Rights Office lies the multicultural district of Pâquis, where Tarek painted the mural on the side of a building about the international icon. It was a component of the Festival Antigel, an urban event that featured dance, music, and visual arts. 

The mural depicts actor Omar Sharif. By emphasizing a softer side to his face through graphic detection, Tarek changes the perception of this important male figure.
