Emii Alrai: A Permanent Nostalgia for Departure at the Contemporary Art Centre, Cincinnati
October 2023
Emii Alrai is included in a group show titled ‘A Permanent Nostalgia for Departure’ at the Contemporary Art Centre, Cincinnati. The exhibition is a take on the architectural legacy of Zaha Hadid. It transcends a monolithic approach, rather, it actively uses Hadid’s architectural thinking as a starting point, as a source of knowledge that can be activated, transferred and evolved. Through site-specific and all-new commissioned works, the show reflects upon the idea of distance in time, history, cultural background, and landscapes, and how a legacy can become a passageway for it. The show is on view through 28 January 2024.
