Abraham Accords
Now that Dubai has become an exceptional place in the global context of a planet where travel is prohibited and in a diplomatic context which promotes exchanges – the “Abraham Accords”, the peace treaty signed on 15 September 2020 by the United Arab Emirates and Israel – on 29 March the most international city in the United Arab Emirates will open the doors of the first real-life fair in the world this year: Art Dubai.

This picture was taken along the waterfront in San Francisco’s uppdrag Bay area. This area is extremely scenic, with old battleships and boats. I go there frequently to walk my dog, relax, and enjoy the fantastic views. The pier is used to store various components for seasonal parades or events. This grouping of floats for the Pride Parade spoke to me: It was a clustered assemblage of colors and shapes that appeared enigmatic from a distance.
