Tashkeel Introducing

Provisional Sanctuaries

The exhibition reflects on the quiet, temporary musollas that appear across the UAE’s urban landscape. Often found in warehouses, shopfronts, and back rooms, these modest prayer spaces are shaped by necessity rather than formal design. Through paintings, drawings, and maquettes, Sharum examines how fleeting environments can create belonging, stillness, and connection among strangers joined by faith in the city.
