CAIRO, March 8 (Xinhua) My paintings here express nature. For me, feminine means nature, because Mother Earth combines strength, tenderness, movement, change and patience, said Reham el-Adl, an abstract painter, on Saturday during the opening ceremony of an exhibition held in downtown Cairo to mark International Women s Day (IWD).
Entitled Mu anath (Feminine), the exhibition held ahead of IWD is organized by Art D Egypte, a renowned Egyptian platform of art and heritage, and features the unique works of 20 talented painters, photographers and sculptors.
The event will last until the beginning of April, according to Nadine Abdel-Ghaffar, founder of Art D Egypte.

Shane Ronayne can’t wait to start working with the Waterford footballers. The All Ireland winning manager with the Tipperary and Mourneabbey ladies takes over from Benji Whelan on a two-year term.
“I wanted to challenge myself. I think there is potential in Waterford to improve. They’re down where they are in Division 4. It’s something different. I’m used to going in with teams where expectations are high. With Tipperary to get up senior status and with Mourneabbey to win a county, a Munster and an All Ireland. This is a different challenge and it’s one where I’m coming out of my comfort zone and I’m going to enjoy it. That was a huge thing about it. It’s going to challenge me as a manager and as a coach and that will be good for my development. I’ve plenty to learn and hopefully this experience will be beneficial for both me and for Waterford.”
It was two days before Christmas in a foreign country, but there was a little bit of home for two former James Madison women s basketball standouts.
In a professional game in Italy on Wednesday, the leading scorer for Empoli was Kamiah Smalls with 22 points while Jazmon Gwathmey had 13 points for Sesto. Each former JMU player led their team in minutes played as Empoli won 80-66.
Smalls, who ended her JMU career last season, is the latest former Dukes player to see time in the WNBA and with a pro league overseas.
She played in seven games for the Indiana Fever in 2020 before heading to Italy. Smalls was drafted in the third round by the Fever after averaging 18.6 points per contest for the Dukes in 2019-20.
