Artist Profile

A VISUAL JOURNEY

There are two stark dimensions to every image we see that do not merely imply to the flatness of a visual representation. The two abstracted dimensions can be perceived by the creator and the viewers: first is the external characteristic of beauty, which is effortlessly seen. Then there is the internal history that would require further exploration. Through my artwork, these two intrinsic qualities are meshed seamlessly in order to showcase a personal narrative behind each painted portrait; with the simultaneous goal of challenging the viewers’ perception of the artwork in front of them and the world around them. Most importantly, one of my artwork’s biggest objectives is to make any viewers enthused to look back into an era that is often viewed favorable and appreciate its artistic repertoire.

YESTERDAY'S

TOMORROW

a glimpse of the past and a peek into the future.

As part of Qatar Creates, the year-round national cultural movement that curates, promotes, and celebrates the diversity of cultural activities in Qatar, and in celebration of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022, Qatar Museums has announced the opening of Fereej Al Najada, Qatar's newest Fereej (village) for the creative industry with Back to the Future: Pop-up Studios.

An immersive experience exhibition where you can purchase any piece of by Aisha Al Abdulla & Parallel Studio - that merges Qatar's past, present and

future.

Preservation of historical and cultural elements is essential to building a legacy. It is through our past that we are able to appreciate the present and envision the future.

As the viewer acts as the central actor of the installation, the use of mirrors is to depict the world

we live in today. Combining historical imagery with modern aesthetics juxtaposing past and future.

The act of revisiting the past gives us a sense of nostalgia while showing us what we can become and how far we can go.
