Tabari Artspace Opens at Alserkal Avenue with Miramar Al Nayyar Solo Exhibition
Tabari Artspace is set to launch its inaugural exhibition at Alserkal Avenue (Warehouse 81) in Dubai, featuring 'Hujra — حجرةُ', a solo showcase by Iraqi artist Miramar Al Nayyar, under the curation of Abeer Seikaly. This exhibition will be open from 16 November to 1 December 2025, signifying the gallery's growth within Dubai's contemporary art scene. Al Nayyar's artistic exploration focuses on flow on canvas, employing a unique technique that combines acrylic, calcium carbonate, oil, and airbrushed pigment. The term 'Hujra', meaning 'chamber', symbolizes an internal psychic realm. The exhibition fosters a conversation between Al Nayyar's creative process and Seikaly's curatorial vision, integrating elements of architecture, performance, and visual expression, with the studio acting as a reflective space for contemplation.
