Mohamed Ahmed Ibrahim

For Abu Dhabi Comission
February 9, 2020

This short film features a largescale public mural by  Emirati artist Mohamed Ahmed Ibrahim. Entitled Grocerry (2019), the work was realized at Madinat Zayed Market in Abu Dhabi, UAE, commissioned as part of the For Abu Dhabi initiative of the government of Abu Dhabi.

 

Ibrahim is part of the UAE’s first generation of contemporary artists. His work is inspired by a lifelong relationship with the environment of UAE. In his practice he often uses symbols and bold colours, as you can see in Madinat Zayd.
