OpenSpace published a write up of In Between on 17 August 2024, Nasser Almulhim's solo exhibition then on view at Tabari in Dubai, with a last day of 6 September 2024.
The piece describes a series of twelve vibrant paintings that draw on Carl Jung's idea of shadow work, and on the thought that insight comes from making darkness conscious. Almulhim refers to the space between conscious and subconscious life as the split. The works are read as fluid geometric forms, and painting is described as a practice through which he works with memory and feeling, hoping colour might also help others. The text names earlier shows, including Shadow Work at Tabari in 2022 and Art Dubai 2023.
In Between ran at Tabari from 6 June to 6 September 2024. OpenSpace already appears on the News page for other shows; this exhibition was not yet among them.
OpenSpace also sketches Almulhim's path from engineering to a studio art degree in Florida, his saturated colour, and a 2021 facade commission at Hayy Jameel with Tamara Kalo. Installation views of In Between accompany the text, credited to the gallery.
Tabari represents Nasser Almulhim.
