LBO Studio and designer Jawaher Alkhayyal have come together for downtown editions to recreate a version of the ongoing exhibition at 1971 – Design Space.
We are the Imprints
The exhibition is an invitation to discover Physiognomy in a spatial experience where it represents the conclusion of a research by the designer Jawaher AlKhayyal, based on a book titled “Ilm Al-firasa ind Al Arab” (The Science of Physiognomy amongst Arabs) dating on information from the Medieval Islamic Period, by the renowned Arab philosopher and scholar Fakhr El Din Al Razi. Physiognomy, translated as “Firaasa”, was recognised by Arabs as a science like other crucial sciences in the past.
