Proud to present the second SEI x ART show this week at 1x1 Gallery, Alserkal Avenue! The overwhelming response to the exhibition has been truly humbling, and it’s been incredible to witness the impact of showcasing emerging African and South Asian talent.
The excitement, energy, and deep fulfillment I feel bringing these works to life fuel my passion for art and its power to connect, inspire, and transform.
I’d love to see you this weekend—come experience these incredible works with us!
Rooted. Nostalgic. Imaginative.
Ahalya’s art is inspired by agrarian life, childhood memories, and her surroundings, with family and pets at the heart of her work.
Rather than directly recreating life, she crafts new narratives, blending travel, daily sights, and personal history into her artistic world.
Aftersun invites viewers to step into a world where tenderness and time intertwine, leaving behind imprints of love, longing, and remembrance.

Aftersun: The Story Behind the Art 🎨✨
This show was born from the idea that what comes after—the echoes of light, the afterglow of emotion, the traces of a moment—is just as significant as the moment itself.
