Moses was hidden in a basket in the Nile when he was a baby and was found by the daughter of Pharaoh. That’s the very beginning of the biblical Israel -Egypt story. Here I presented Moses not a baby but as a well known adult and not hidden but placed in the center of the scene, to combine beginning and end inspired by the renewal of the relationship between Israel and Egypt.
