Gust For You
Gust For You
An ever-evolving experimental publishing project by Yomna Mohamed. This project as a whole examines how domestic ephemera functions as an archive within Arab visual culture, reframing ornamentation and “kitsch” as a sophisticated system of design, memory, and language preservation
Projects:
Youm Wara Youm is a 2026 Arabic calendar and artist book created in collaboration between Makan and multidisciplinary artist Yomna Mohamed. These calendars, often overlooked, hold a rich visual language: exuberant compositions, saturated palettes, devotional imagery, and a bold confidence in ornamentation. Youm Wara Youm pays homage to this vernacular world, honoring the independent printers and publishers whose work has shaped the everyday aesthetic landscape of Egypt and much of the Arab region.
قلب شادية , Qalb Shadia (Shadia’s Heart) takes the form of a redesigned blanket, part of an ongoing series reimagining domestic objects. Throughout the work, my personal email and full name appear in large, whimsical typefaces and neon colors, alongside photographs of my father in his 20s. Phrases like “May Allah Give You Warmth,” Apple logos, Lacoste icons, and thumbs-up symbols are layered into the composition.
Through these projects, I am addressing the historical exclusion of Arab, working-class, and diasporic visual culture from design discourse.
