Event summary

Highlights

  • Features 10 artists exploring human behavioral patterns and memory
  • Curated by Meena Vari
  • Includes a 10-meter oil painting by Abdulla P A and intimate seashell assemblages by Ana Escobar Saavedra
  • Examines the intersection of human observation and artificial intelligence
Curated by Meena Vari, "Unseen Script" brings together ten artists to explore the routines, memories, and observations that form distinctly human experiences. The exhibition delves into how everyday patterns, from the roads we travel to the objects in our homes, subtly shape our lives, and how these ideas take on new significance as technology becomes increasingly adept at identifying human behavioral patterns.

The featured artworks vary dramatically in scale and medium, including a 10-meter oil painting by Abdulla P A and intimate seashell assemblages by Ana Escobar Saavedra. Other contributing artists include Emirati artist Nujoom Alghanem, known for exploring the relationship between city and nature, and Syrian artist Ismail Al Rifai, whose landscapes draw on repeatedly traveled routes. The exhibition aims to prompt reflection on individual consciousness and subjective experience in a world increasingly influenced by artificial intelligence.
