A personal project about the United Arab Emirates. “The UAE is a country in constant change. Once an obscure Gulf nation, in just 40 years it has emerged from the desert sands. The growth from the oil-driven development has attracted expatriates from across the world which now make up 85 percent of the population. The modern identity of the Emirates is evolving through this influx of foreign influences which often leave behind an unexpected environment.”
