The Third Line presents the first solo-exhibition by Sophia Al Maria in the UAE. Sophia Al Maria is an artist, writer and filmmaker, in this exhibition creates an immersive experience, capturing the chaotic, almost apocalyptic act of consuming.
“Everything Must Go” shows a new series of works, where the artist introduces a playful twist, juxtaposing emblems of consumerism with military jargon and captures the crux of the end of days where chaos and destruction are met by a violent military attempt to reinstate order.
“Everything Must Go” consists of a large series of stills taken from “Black Friday’s The Litany” series, exhibited at The Whitney Museum of American Art in 2016
