                                              The MENASA Studio Dispatches were commissioned by The Island and Art Dubai Projects, by artists working across the North Africa, Middle East and South Asia regions. Each dispatch reflects the artists’ current work and they range in form from spoken word and music to abstract sound collage. As well as creating a living archive of artistic practice across the region, the dispatches interrogate the contemporary notion of the ‘studio’ and the accelerated expansion of related technologies over recent years, which have transformed the way in which knowledge is produced and disseminated.

                                              Description: An audial ethnography representing the broader experiential atelier within which the artist creates - the city of Kabul, the international community, world pop music, traditionalism, progressive movements, and an Islamic state; a sort of “globalized static” further attempting to locate himself within his own sense of cultural diffuseness.
