Prayer on a Wheel. 2012
Inspired by the way the haath gadi wallahs ('wallah' means 'man' in Hindi) use their trolley as a place to rest when they are not working, Alhashemi has designed pieces of modular furniture made from recycled cardboard tubes. Alhashemi has engaged the services of a haath gadi wallah to circulate Bastakiya with a trolley bearing one of these pieces, designed to fit the vehicle.
