WITH NABLA YAHYA
2023 - SCULPTURE - FIBREGLASS
As an offshoot of performance Emirates Staff No. 460596, this work is the recreation of the onboard rest compartment for crew working long haul flights: a space dedicated to recharging in order to operate optimally in the duration of the flight. Reconstructed from fleeting memory and limited documentation, this sculpture provides partial access to a part of the plane that is otherwise off-limits to passengers.

This work was commissioned by Jameel Arts Centras part of the exhibition Guest Relations, 2023.
