David was artist in Residence at The Majlis Gallery in December 2012 an experience he describes below.
“I was drawn to the waterways and quay sides of the Creek, the Souks and bazaars, the elegance of The Al Fahedi Historic Neighbourhood with its sunlit courtyards and dramatic shadows. Looking down from balconies and from narrow alleyways upon daily tasks being performed with both old buildings and modern architecture as a backdrop.” This is Davids first exhibition in Dubai , We are sure it wont be his last.
