We are the real product..!!

This project was part of a multidisciplinary group exhibition, Al-Riwaq gallery, in which we were given the chance to choose small gaps within the big fabric of the old souq of manama to plant our art..

I chose a small alley, and placed photos of people behind the shop glass on both sides of the alley, "window shopping", (1:1 scale). I was trying to reverse the nature of a market, and put the public on display instead..
