UAE Pavilion Commissions

Generations

We are beyond thrilled to share this photography series we were commissioned to create for the United Arab Emirates’ Host Pavilion.
Currently exhibited at the UAE Pavilion in Expo, these images were captured by Mohamed Somji with meticulous detail and care.
Getting to know the exceptional families and listening to their stories of pride and togetherness made this project a truly special experience.

The Dreamers Lab

We were commissioned to create these portraits by the United Arab Emirates’ Host Pavilion, and they are currently exhibited at the UAE Pavilion in Expo.  This series captures Dreamers from a diverse and inclusive community, devoting themselves to making our planet healthier, cleaner, and more sustainable. 

Our team had the pleasure of learning so much while we were on the journey of capturing the portraits of these incredibly inspiring indivisuals.

Cultural Foundation

The Cultural Foundation is one of my favorite spaces in the UAE; its location at the heart of the city, its brilliant outdoor spaces and surroundings, and of course for its wonderful design and architecture, in particular, its arcades, its low height, and geometric shapes and beautiful tilework. It’s always a pleasure to be commissioned to photograph a space or building that I love, and given that it has such a historical and cultural significance, it has been a delight to spend time around the Cultural Foundation.
