Blueprints
Ink and watercolour on paper, Museum of Modern Art Kuwait (2016)
In my journals resides a decade of a past self; a period of me. I decided to interact with that period by becoming a scribe copying my own words on fresh paper. The process of scribing was interrupted by visual depictions of imaginary people with familiar gestures and features. Situated in the museum’s courtyard, the work was displayed consecutively inside a corridor of plastic sleeves. The installation and the accompanied film projection of the work process was done in collaboration with my friend Dalal Yousif Al Hashash. During the launch, Mohammed Al-Owaisi performed a music composition inspired by the series.
