Times Kuwait – Mohammed Omar Khalil – Dongola Limited Editions
Followed by their talk, the book will be on display at Mullen Lowe Blu (next to Dar Al Funoon)
Dongola Limited Edition would like to present this book as a place of encounter, a journey, and a dialogue between Tayeb Salih’s Season of Migration to the North, and Mohammad Omar Khalil’s etchings which pay tribute to the novel from homeland in Sudan to the North and accumulated culture of migration.
The result of a two-year-long project, the 30 hand-numbered artist’s books are named after the original novel by late Sudanese author Tayeb Salih.
Dialoguing with the novel, the etchings constitute a visceral response to a work lodged deep within the artist’s memory. Khalil’s works accompany a distinctive re-edition of the novel in its original Arabic, designed by Reza Abedini, itself graced with an etching on the cover.
