You only have to visit one of the many barbershops in El Diem to become aware of its multicultural make-up. To celebrate cultural diversity, Abdel Moniem Hamza (Sudan) collected hair in one of the barbershops. All the different hairstyles came together in the word Diem – made from a mixture of hair that was glued onto a piece of fabric. He invited one of the famous singers from El Diem to perform in this costume.
