W Doha Hotel & Residences is hosting the works of Qatari artist Lulu M at Art 29. The exhibition titled 'REM Rapid Emotional Movement', curated by Fahad al Obaidly will run until November 16, from 9:00 am to 7:00 pm.
Born in London in 1978, Lulu M is a self-taught artist recognised for her minimalist abstract compositions. Her works often draw inspiration from bold experimentations with a myriad of painting techniques and materials, producing astonishing pieces that express pure emotion through colour and form.
With the 'REM Rapid Emotional Movement' exhibition, Lulu M traverses the emotional realm of her dreams. The collection illuminates the process and rhythm by which the artist creates her pieces, inviting viewers to explore the unique depths and dimension of her work. Featuring sundry materials, forms and colours, the exhibition promises an introspective journey of her vivid dreams, persuading viewers to look deeply into her pieces and experience them.
The artist's phenomenal work is not new to the Art 29 repertoire. Her past paintings were previously showcased alongside other emerging female Middle Eastern artists as part of the group exhibition 'Currents' by online art gallery Emergeast held earlier this year.
Art 29, established as a vibrant platform to showcase the works of emerging local, regional and international artists, has featured prominent Qatari names including Ahmed bin Majed al Maadheed, the artist behind the iconic portrait of the Emr His Highness Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al Thani, as well as Abdulwahed al Malawi who is known for documenting local artistic expression from the late 1990s to 2002.
Within a year of its launch, Art 29 has also played host to a photography exhibition titled 'Shifting Spaces & Forgotten Walls' by students at the Virginia Commonwealth University-Qatar, as well an exhibit by Emergeast, the first online art gallery that brings together emerging Middle Eastern artists and young collectors under one umbrella.
