Double-exposure of a worker in Bur Dubai. Dubai, United Arab Emirates. 2014.

“Can we ever really see or experience things from someone else’s point of view? It’s what I challenged myself to do when I was invited to make work about Dubai, a place that I found disorienting and lonely. I wondered if I could find a way to see the city through the eyes of someone I had read about.
There was a man who had disappeared in a shipwreck 50 years previously and was still believed to be alive by their family. Hoping that this point of view might help me to express the feeling of isolation I was experiencing, I decided to ‘borrow’ his eyes. Through this story, I managed to find a way into the city — and its history — and see it differently to how I might have otherwise.
This double-exposure came about by mistake but I always felt that it represented something important about the project and the feeling I had been searching for. In it I see the transient nature of life in Dubai, of things both coming towards you and going away at the same time. This project became my second book, Stranger.”
