The Good, the Bad and the Crimson Shoe 

 An Exhibition of Drawings by Maghraby & Tawfig 
I always see objects under the microscope to understand what they are, but what If I put the crimson shoe under the microscope? Salma said.
Salma’s use of the microscope is purely for informational purposes; the microscope is sort of an eye that Salma sees through… sees the reality of things around her.
Whenever Salma puts an object under the microscope … fines lines appear … and form a structural creation … in an unregulated mechanical movement. Salma sat for days looking through the microscope… observing the structural creation .. that constantly changes.
The Crimson Shoe was the only object she never put under the microscope, as all she had was an old painting of the shoe and not the shoe itself.
Salma went to the shoe maker with the painting of the shoe.
How do you have this painting? The shoe maker asked
So you have the Crimson Shoe? Salma said
Yes, the shoe maker replied.
Salma quickly took the shoe…put it under the microscope…and a serial number appears: 10426003850620… Salma looks up and wanders what these numbers are.
