Ahmed and Rachid Mourabit are young
brothers who live and work in the Atlantic coastal town of Essouira, commonly
known in Morocco as "Windy City". Eschewing the traditional metal work
churned out by fellow craftsmen of the town, namely in the shape of lamps for
the tourists, Ahmed and Rachid take discarded everyday objects like teapots,
locks and scissors, and together with a variety of nuts, bolts and screws,
create whimsical sculptures with great charm and humour.
