UAE 50th National Day






I was invited to work as part of the team at Luke Halls Studio to collaborate with Es Devlin for the UAE’s 50th National Day celebration in 2021. The show was based around a floating rotating sculpture – a timepiece calibrating 50 years between people and land – in the mountainous region of Hatta, UAE – created in collaboration with the mountains, the sky, the deep green lake and an exceptionally powerful group of female Emirati artists.

Our task was to create projection content that would assist in telling that story alongside Chorography, Pyro, lighting and sound.
