Drawing inspiration from Dubai’s rich tapestry of natural materials, Kamran Samimi, who grew up in rural Laupāhoehoe on Hawaiʻi Island to parents of Iranian and Norwegian ancestry, explores the ancient tales concealed within the golden dunes of its desert foundation in his series of works for ‘Before Nature’. Through careful observation and interpretation of the large boulders scattered across the surrounding desert, he seeks to resurrect the spirit of the landscape.
