WHAT'S ON Manarat Al Saadiyat

MUJO Installation

7 - 17 Sep

Location: Gallery A 

MUJO is a multi-channel video and sound installation that explores the impermanence of life through dance, music, and visual art. Set against the backdrop of the desert, it deconstructs the body’s interaction with natural elements like sand and wind, mirroring the continuous assembly and disassembly of dunes. Drawing from the Japanese concept of 'MUJO' (impermanence), the installation offers a meditative reflection on the transient nature of our bodies, minds, and creations. Art direction and choreography by Kiori Kawai, supported by New York University Abu Dhabi, Liwa Art Hub/Ahmed Saleh Al Yafei.
