The Third Line presents The Return Project by Babak Golkar, the artist's second solo show in Dubai. A brand new body of work, and a break from previous works, The Return Project is a constellation of works where readymade consumer articles are dissected, reconstructed and represented within the commercial conditions of their wholesale environment.

Through a variety of media including drawing, print, ceramics, sculpture and installation, Babak has developed a form-based dialectic into human conditions of contemporary time. An underlying current in Babak’s work is the inquiry into the individual’s compromise and negotiation when faced with the suppression and emotional distress of contemporary life.
