Charlie has held residencies in Holland (2015), Cuba (2015) and Singapore (Most notably at the Institute of Contemporary Arts). Upon the completion of his degree, he joined Fabien Fryns Fine Art in the summer of 2022.

For her first solo exhibition at Tabari Artspace, Almaha Jaralla invites the audience to join her on a journey through Abu Dhabi’s constructed and social worlds from the 1980s until the present day.

Jaralla understands these intimate portraits as a window into the essence of the city during a period of rapid social and physical transformation in the Gulf.
