Ryan is one of the founders of Archief Cairo – A Multilingual Laboratory for Research, Preservation and Communication and since 2017, he has been one of the co-directors of the 100/100–HUNDRED BEST ARABIC POSTERS platform.

In recent years, he has proven to be an illustrator and graphic designer of considerable value. Born in the Philippines, raised in Germany, and currently living in Egypt, he describes his characteristically playful works as “hybrids” between cultures, seamlessly combining hand-drawn qualities, graphic design techniques, and photography. Complex and intuitive mark-making and a witty, sometimes pointed use of text and slogans characterize much of his artistic work.
