The Oud Abaya Solo, London

16–18 May 2025, Kensington

The Burning Oud Abaya came together as a complete body of work in Reem’s first solo exhibition in London.

The three-day exhibition included monumental abayas, photography, and film installations that explored women’s experiences of exploitation, silence, and survival.

Audiences engaged with anonymous reflection prompts first introduced in Qatar, now brought into the UK context.

Oud Abaya, Public Installation

11 February 2025, Doha

Empty walkway with street lamps and greenery, leading towards a modern, lit-up arch structure in the distance during dusk or early evening.

The Oud Abaya was presented publicly at 5/6 Park on Qatar’s National Sports Day.

Positioned within a wider landscape of public art, the work invited reflection through a series of anonymous prompts:

  • What are the untold stories of women around you?

  • What grief are you carrying?

  • How can grief be used positively in life?
