‘And After” explores the element of air and its various states through the lens of Arabic terminology, specifically “Sukoon”, “Hawaa”, “Naseem”, and “Riyah”. In Arabic, “Sukoon” symbolises stillness and the pause between movement, while “Hawaa” refers to the gentle, everyday state of air. The exhibition examines how these elemental states influence our environments and internal rhythms, encouraging visitors to contemplate the moments of pause and transformation.
