Rest: MOHAMMED KAZEM AND VIKRAM DIVECHA

Overview

Rest delves into the intricate relationship between labour, rest, and the ever-evolving urban landscape of the UAE. Considering the dynamics of human existence, alternating between cycles of depletion and restoration, the exhibition highlights the vital role of rest in the perpetual movement of cities. Driven by the forces of capitalism, desire, and aspiration, cities rely on the labour that fuels them. Rest challenges societal norms that discourage rest, aiming to disrupt the prevailing narrative and explore possibilities on the other side of exhaustion.
