The XVA a/k/a - Every Corner Has A Purpose #178


A common complaint of Dubai is the lack of culture. A huge antidote to this is the XVA and the Majlis Gallery.

This shot is of a corner, at the top of some stairs. I like it, one hopes you do too...

This is a great space with some really interesting art. In the same area is the Majlis - a very cool place to visit.

Every corner has a purpose.

Falcon Frenzy - #79


Some say that Dubai lacks culture and to some degree they could be right.

However Dubai does do street art quite well. These falcons are individual art works and they are dotted all round the city. There has also been camels and horses previously.

This particular one is made to represent the traditional Arabic red chequered head dress I imagine.
