拍品專文

According to the latest population statistics in the United Arab Emirates, there are dozens of different nationalities in the country. The UAE has so successfully attracted this variety of nationalities due to its features that include providing a safe lifestyle, prosperity, and the rule of law with justice and equality - all factors that lead the Emirates to become a magnet for others to live in peace.
In my work, optimally, I want to present the number of persons residing in the Emirates and represent them through color. The intensity of a color is significant in that it shows the proportion of population density for the nationalities within the Emirates; furthermore each color is representing a segment of people whose culture helps to make up human civilization. This work attempts to discuss the existence of various cultures in the UAE, along with how the nature of life and laws that govern them bring them all together.

(Khalid Al-Banna, 2013)
