Roland and Sabrina Michaud @ The Empty Quarter
Roland and Sabrina Michaud “MIRROR OF THE ORIENT”
Opening reception: DIFC, 20th January 2016, 7pm – 9pm
The idea behind “Orient in a mirror” is to reflect the beauty of Islamic culture and to prompt reflection on it. The result is a fantastic dialogue between art and life, past and present, oriental miniatures and photography.
“My fascination with the idea of mirrors dates back to my trip in Persia sixty years ago, I was amazed to discover that the Palace of Forty Columns in Isfahan had only twenty but the reflection of these in the water made them appear double this number. The world of miniatures is an enchanting world of light, color and transparency” Roland Michaud highlights. Roland and Sabrina have a deep interest in miniatures and old illustrations for different cultures. While travelling the Orient, they wanted to re-discover this authenticity and genuineness of this particular culture.
