Digital art is an artistic work that has been in practice under several names since 1970. It uses digital technology as part of the creative or presentation process and is also known as computer art and multimedia art. Generally, Digital art is an umbrella term for the new media art, flourishing in the world in general, with Mohamed Abdelhay as its torchbearer in Egypt.
Egyptian Digital artist, Mohamed AbdelHay, gets an internationally-recognized certificate for his continuous creativity in taking photos in Egypt and combining them with some designs, in addition to taking photos of some natural phenomena that occurred in Egypt in the past years.

I found, in the past days, people talking about Mohamed Abdelhay that he is making from time to time announcements about his availability to edit and retouch the photos for anyone without a fee.
Initially, I did not believe this as to why a person with such a skill would be doing for free from the art he could earn a lot. Then I decided to test my doubt by sending him some pictures on Instagram at his account “Mohamedabdelhay96” to see what he can make for me. To my surprise, he modified them without any charges.
Then I sent some questions to Mohamed Abdelhay on his Instagram account and, and he responded favorably.
These are some of the questions:
Me: What is your dream behind design and photography? Why do you do this without the slightest return? and what is the ideal image and perfect design from the point of view?
The Egyptian artist, Mohamed Abdelhay, said: “My dream extends to the sky to become one of the most important digital artists in the world if not the best.” He said that he wants to flourish the digital art in Egypt, and add:
“Any certificate I will receive is a tribute to my country, Egypt, and his peers in Egypt. It will also be a tribute to those who encouraged me to continue taking pictures and merging them to reach the international level of professionalism.”
Mohamed Abdelhay also stressed, “he does this without any money and for free in order to draw laughter and joy in the face of others by modifying their photos and restoring their past”. He said that he does not seek any exchange for money, instead “he does this to exercise his talent because he loves to design and Photography”.
The digital artist was of the view that “the ideal image cannot be reached, as there is no ideal image from my point of view, especially when the estimating things differ from one person to another.”
Mohamed Abdelhay, who is also a graphic designer, indicated that the potential energy of memories and stories anywhere that inflame the feelings of the photographer are worth-pursuing. He added because “they explode the energies of creativity and genius, producing with a pulsating image, the surrounding environment and the extent of the photographer’s communication with it certainly means pictures that compel the recipient to stand with it for a longer time.”
