Sud Obelisk is a public artwork in Douala, Cameroon, created by Faouzi Laatiris.
On one side, names of the city and other places in the world are engraved in Latin characters and Arabic calligraphy, which are endowed with obelisks and are reference places of art.
The obelisk, belonging to the vocabulary of classical Egyptian architecture, is the most elaborate shape of universal rites of raised stones.
Such monuments, of classic, modern or contemporary periods decorate most of the Western and African metropolises today.
Sud Obelisk, also makes reference to the burial, which as a rite is an integral part of Cameroonian life.
