Abu Dhabi: ‘Artifacts of the Current Moments’ is an immersive, multi-layered artwork by Emirati artist, poet and director Nujoom Alghanem, commissioned by Abu Dhabi Art for a cultural site in Al Ain this year as part of activities and events on the sidelines of the Al Ain Book Festival 2023.

 

The work spans seven rooms in the Al Jahili Fort and presents multiple forms centred around ceramics as the main material for contemplation of the installation’s main theme of “the present moment”.
