Five Feet High and Rising, 2017
Mixed media installation
Commissioned by Sharjah Art Foundation
Venue: Bait Al Aboudi, Art Spaces at Al Mureijah Square
In the form of a museographic essay, the artist conceives the longing and compulsion for rivers as a space of encounter amongst different cultures and subjectivities. The wide range of elements in the installation narrate a somewhat esoteric cultural history of rivers that charts and merges different stories of movement, migration and fragmentation, while drifting through a combination of literature, images and music that make reference to small and large waterways.
