Cities of Stars (2023) is an ensemble of structures that act almost as nests for light. They are covered in textiles that are printed with drawings of four city landscapes: Bangkok, Casablanca, Rio de Janeiro, and Riyadh. Chourouk Hriech invites visitors to wander among her creations, as a journey through her eyes. Her depictions also underline the importance of nature. She has chosen a bird to represent each city: cranes for the Thai capital, storks for Casablanca, parrots for Rio, and falcons for Riyadh.
