Winds of the East — 03

The collection draws its colours from the diversity of the Emirati environment, combining treatments of letter, colour and abstraction. Each work consists of eighteen pieces of stretched canvas mounted on a black ground with calculated gaps between them.

This structure arose in response to the nature of the hotel corridors and the need to access services behind some of the work locations. The units and gaps became part of the visual rhythm and, at the same time, part of the solution linking art to the function of the place.
