SUMMARY:Nazilya Nagimova: Follow the Snail
DESCRIPTION:The first solo exhibition in the Emirates for the Münster-based Tatar artist Nazilya Nagimova brings together new works created specifically for her solo project at NIKA Project Space\, plus selections from earlier projects. \nNagimova explores memory\, migration\, and the search for belonging\, and these works share a thematic core: the artist’s ongoing experiments with felt (a traditional material of her ancestors)\, her engagement with the long histories of Tatar mobility and settlement\, and the idea of home as a mobile\, vulnerable\, and constantly transforming structure. Says the gallery: “The exhibition unfolds as a reflection on the fragility of shelter and on how personal and collective memory shape our intimate relationship to place and community”. \nTo 4 April. \nAbove: Nazilya Nagimova\, Jort\, White (2025)

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE RUSTING ECHOES
DESCRIPTION:Works by Yoshi (Aisha Al Ali)\, Ammar Al Banna\, Ahmed Al Kuwaiti and Shaikha Al Shamsi. The theme is time as both a material and emotional presence\, expressed through processes of transformation\, memory\, repetition\, and decay – so time not as a measured unit\, but as something felt through texture\, resonance\, and change. “The artists engage in slow\, process-driven methods that register time through touch\, material\, and repetition” and the exhibition “reflects on how time manifests quietly through change\, decay\, and resonance\, revealing both impermanence and continuity in the marks it leaves …” It is curated by art educator and researcher Sarrah Bashir.

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Bady Dalloul: Self-portrait with a Cat I Don’t Have
DESCRIPTION:An extended solo exhibition for the Syrian-French artist\, curated by Art Jameel’s Lucas Morin. \nSelf-portrait with a cat I don’t have is Bady Dalloul’s first institutional solo exhibition in the United Arab Emirates. Blending autobiographical anecdotes with stories of individuals he encounters\, the artworks feature fragile heroes and ordinary people navigating systems larger than themselves. Dalloul repurposes everyday materials—including books\, matchboxes\, board games and magazines—to create surprising dialogues across cultures and genres. He elevates everyday narratives into epics\, bridges high and low brow\, and importantly\, connects non-Western cultures\, at times unexpectedly\, outside of conventional delineations and Eurocentric gaze. \nSpecially made for this exhibition\, Age of Empires\, a new series of 50 works on paper\, uses onmyōdō\, a 19th-century Japanese astrology manual\, to contemplate the life and death of imperial power. On the gallery walls\, Matchboxes\, a series of dozens of minuscule drawings framed in matchboxes\, offer snapshots of everyday scenes\, news broadcasts and political developments witnessed by the artist over the years\, notably in his family’s native Syria. Inside a recreated apartment inspired by Dalloul’s live-in studio in Dubai\, multiple small works retrace the last five years of his nomadic practice.

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Mohamed Ahmed Ibrahim: Two Clouds in the Night Sky
DESCRIPTION:A solo show celebrating the work of Mohamed Ahmed Ibrahim\, a massively influential figure in the development of contemporary art in the UAE. He was part of the UAE’s first generation of contemporary artists from the late 1980s\, an avant-garde scene that included Hassan Sharif\, Abdullah Al Saadi\, Hussein Sharif\, and Mohammed Kazem. \nThis exhibition should allow for an exploration of Ibrahim’s meditative\, process-driven practice. Ibrahim’s work has been inspired by a lifelong relationship with the environment of Khorfakkan\, his place of birth. This deep connection to his local environment repeats itself throughout his studio practice\, whether through his installations\, drawings or objects\, and the materials he has worked with for over three decades.

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Ludmilla Radchenko: Wings of Power
DESCRIPTION:Works resulting from a year of profound transformation initiated by the artist’s journey to Nepal\, “where inner awareness and self-observation became central to her practice”. Radchenko’s visual language combines painting\, collage\, symbolism\, and layered cultural references\, creating compositions that are bold\, ironic\, and emotionally charged. Recurring animal figures embody the Seven Deadly Sins — not as moral judgment\, but as raw human forces: instinct\, desire\, fear\, excess\, anger\, pride\, and inertia. Opposing them are the Wings\, symbols of awareness\, elevation\, and transformation.

SUMMARY:POSTPONED Mouteea Murad: Exodus Through the Maze – Disorientation as Fate
DESCRIPTION:“Disorientation does not begin with the wandering mind\, but with an excess of questioning\,” says the gallery in introducing this exhibition of the Syria-born Sharjah-based artist’s most recent body of work. “In this context\, art is not considered a linear path or a complete narrative\, but rather a constantly shifting one –moving between memory\, origin\, and transformation.” \nIn Exodus through the Maze\, Murad explores art as a practice influenced by existing visuals – “derived from everyday imagery and experiences\, as well as the ongoing development of past visual languages”. The collages on display reference elements of modern and contemporary art within a new visual framework that opens the image to reinterpretation. \nTo 10 April. \nAbove: Mouteea Murad\, Trial No. 173 – The Fate of the Red Exodus I (2024)

DESCRIPTION:Without formal art schooling\, Nihad Al Turk has developed a distinctive visual language that blends colours\, forms\, and patterns\, “preserving his naïve sensibility while conveying his philosophical outlook and artistic vision”.

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Huma Shoaib: Fractal
DESCRIPTION:Huma Shoaib has always been an interesting\, thoughtful artist\, creating patterns from sacred geometry and looking for analogies in life and nature. She often uses paper cut silhouettes layered with detailed graphite drawings that typically adds three-dimensional depth to otherwise flat imagery. \nAccording to the gallery\, this new show is “an exhibition that explores chaos as fractal paradox; where perfect\, infinite patterns of existence\, spirituality and free will will repeat across scales\, blurring the line between divine order and self-destructive conflict …” Significantly influenced by sufi ideologies\, Huma Shoaib’s work tries to break down this chaos into simple fractal structures that speak of order\, perfection\, the divine.

SUMMARY:Jane Beveridge: Local
DESCRIPTION:The Dubai-based artist’s first solo show aim to capture the essence of Dubai\, and of belonging. Says the artist\, who is currently Head of Art at Dubai College: “my visual palette and material inspiration are rooted in the streets. I am drawn to the beauty of cracked\, stained\, and weathered walls as well as surfaces patched with plaster or paint – they read like large abstract paintings. Corrugated cardboard\, concrete\, sand\, rust\, tangled wires\, weathered wood – all find their way into my work\, each carrying a story of time\, place and texture …” \nTo 6 April.

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Luis Olaso: Photosynthesis
DESCRIPTION:New work by the Spanish artist\, which the gallery says marks a pivotal moment in his practice. They were created in his new studio in Cádiz\, surrounded by olive\, almond\, and orange trees\, allowing nature to enter physically and psychologically; rather than depicting this environment directly\, Olaso allows it to act as a catalyst for emotion\, intuition\, and subconscious response. As the artist puts it: “Even when I work with plants\, flowers\, or everyday elements\, I am not aiming for literal representation; they are a vehicle to express abstract metaphors of myself and the moment I am living while creating the work”.

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Alia Hussain Lootah: In the Space of Becoming
DESCRIPTION:In this new body of work – paintings\, drawings\, and sculpture – Alia Lootah continues an exploration of how form moves\, shifts\, and transforms (“a form is never finished\, only paused”). Shapes stretch\, collapse\, and reappear altered\, “existing in a space between recognition and ambiguity” as the gallery puts it. \nThe exhibition is anchored by knitted sculptures that demonstrate how simple materials can generate complexity – structures produced by a meditative\, rhythmic act shaped by memory and labour\, contrasting softness and stability\, movement and stillness. “The exhibition invites viewers to engage patiently\, witnessing forms that are always unfolding\, always becoming …”
