If you build it, will they come? This is a depressing story of overreach. Reminds me of the Tower of Babel. Thanks so much for sharing. The journal is wonderful as usual. Dee
Brilliant blog post Danny, I loved the drawings and the video, would make a good location for a spooky film, such a strange place. An English girl in my daughter’s class is moving to Dubai as her father works out there. It’s bound to be a bit hotter there than here in the UK that’s for sure. I start getting panicky if it gets a bit too warm here I would positively melt in Dubai.
A haunting video and watercolor-lush pages! Have you thought of publishing a small book of your Dubai sketches? I’d buy it for sure! Your sketches give me an immediacy that I’m there.
Reminds me of the tower of babel as well. It’s a horrible godless place. I’ve seen several documentaries of Dubai and it’s a frightening corner of the world. Thanks for sharing. I LOVE your gorgeous pages.

Love the way your sketchbooks are so colourful these days. Like the film too – though it feels like a horror movie!

Wonderful drawings, but seems a very creep kind of place! Slick film though!

Brilliant film. I lived in Saudi Arabia for two years and it is very similar. Can’t say I have any desire to return to that part of the world.
