Egyptian Artist Zeina Sparks Debate with Provocative Social Media Post
Egyptian artist Zeina has generated considerable discussion on social media following a provocative post on her official Instagram account. In her message, she criticized what she termed "the change of souls" and negative intentions, without naming specific individuals, leading to widespread speculation among her followers.
In her post, Zeina asserted:
"Times have changed, and making mistakes and falling is a condition to please some people... I will not change my principles no matter what happens, and I will bear the consequences of my positions alone."
The post quickly attracted significant engagement, with some interpreting it as a protest against emerging norms in the artistic community, while others viewed it as a reflection of a personal situation, especially given the lack of clarity regarding whom she was addressing.
This message coincides with Zeina's involvement in her latest dramatic project, the series "Ward and Chocolate," which features a cast that includes Mohamed Farag, Mariam El Khasht, Morad Makram, Safaa El Toukhi, Maha Nassar, Mohamed Soliman, Amr Mahdi, Bassam Rajeeb, Youssef Hashish, and Aya Selim. The series is written by Mohamed Raga and directed by Mohamed Adel.
Zeina has previously indicated that the title of the series may not accurately reflect its content. While it appears romantic at first glance, she noted that it delves into more complex and realistic themes, uncovering deeper layers of the characters and events.
Through her ambiguous yet candid communication, Zeina has once again captured public attention, reaffirming her dedication to her principles, even at the risk of controversy.
