"...an amazing show with its content and techniques, with its charming artistic tableaus. I would say that this work has promoted and upscaled the Aesthetic taste of beauty for the thousands of Palestinians who watched it."

"...a journey of discovery of the human nature."
AL-AYYAM (NEWSPAPER)

QATAR TRIBUNE FRIDAY 27TH MARCH 2009
"Identity of the Soul immerses the audience in music, imagery and poetry; all designed to assault and seduce them, on a scale that is intensely emotional, sensitive and thought provoking. Viewers are challenged, lulled, comforted and encouraged to reflect on their own choices in life, the choices that are made in their name and how they as individuals would act if faced with similar dilemmas."
