This artwork captures the essence of The Heart of Europe in Dubai—a place where imagination and ambition transform the impossible into reality. Using shredded currency, sand, and resin, the piece symbolizes the fusion of natural and artificial elements that define this luxurious, man-made paradise.
The shredded currency represents the cost and value of building such extravagant dreams, while the sand ties the project back to its desert origins. The resin, with its smooth, glassy finish, mirrors the water that surrounds these islands, reminding us of the delicate balance between creation and preservation.
"Currency of Dreams" invites viewers to reflect on the price of ambition and the intricate beauty of crafting utopias—both on canvas and in the real world.
