A WHOLE NEW WORLD
The ‘ Wheel of Life’ is one of celebrated Lebanese artist Joëlle A Kurdy’s most notable bodies of work — and selected pieces from the series are showing for the first time right here in Dubai.
Each piece is designed to hang together on a single thread, offering inventive ways of looking at a new world. Each incorporates an eclectic selection of vintage photographs, books and magazines old and new, to examine the relationship between the current day and timelessness.
Coinciding with Art Week Dubai, the show will be on at NK Luxury Consultancy at Dubai’s Design District between March 12- 18.
