SPECTRUM EXHIBITON (Until 28 October 2026)
Becoming does not arrive all at once. It unfolds gradually, announced through faint traces, through light, through time, and through what lingers after a moment has passed. From this space emerge the works of the fourth cohort of Spectrum Photography’s Residency Programme, born of a shared journey of research, making, and critical exchange.
Time: 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM
Location: Manarat Al Saadiyat
