Before making the costumes, Chant did some watercolor studies of what he had in mind. The watercolors got lost during the 90’s decade, but there is still a 3 edition reproduction printed on dibond. Thanks to the in-depth understanding of his artistic practice, his works can be understood and read as an affirmation of his an own Egyptian identity as well as the uniqueness coming from a collective and universal heritage, that goes beyond all borders: an Eastern identity standing up to Western supremacy.
