Overview

This publication brings together essays, interviews and project documentation exploring the artist’s long-standing engagement with the often invisible systems of planning, construction, demolition and maintenance that shape contemporary urban life. Centring on Divecha’s collaborations with workers, contractors and decision-makers across the UAE and beyond, the publication examines the social, political and material infrastructures embedded within the built environment. Curated and edited by Dawn Ross and Lucas Morin, it features contributions by Sabih Ahmed, Vikram Divecha, Gayatri Gopinath, Robert T. Kilroy, Lucas Morin and Dawn Ross.
