Asterisms explores geological and social displacement on a planetary scale through focusing on the United Arab Emirates. Gold factories, oil recovery, migrant labour, desertification, artificial islands and Arabian horses trained for show are among the connected elements that unfold in different, often overlapping, cinematic geometries projected onto a star-like shape that floats between a wall and a sculpture.
