Afra Al Dhaheri

In this episode I get to sit down and have a late night chat with visual artist Afra Al Dhaheri.  Afra's work is rooted in her experiences growing up in Abu Dhabi and the wider UAE – a place of recent and rapid change. We really get to go deep into her practice and the visual language of her work, her relationship with materials, and the questions she ponders while creating . We also talk about the importance of choosing the right gallery to be represented by,  how productivity and creativity have been challenged during the lock down, and much more.  Afra is also an Assistant Professor in Visual Arts at Zayed University , Abu Dhabi, and the cofounder of Bait15.
