Don’t miss: Constructing Portraits show in Al Quoz, Dubai



On July 31, Gulf Photo Plus will launch an exhibition displaying portraits of workers from a Dubai-based labour camp.

The images were taken during the recent Eid holidays, when a team from GPP headed to the Al Quoz camp, photographed the workers, and and printed out the images, handing each of them a hard copy that they could send to their families back home.

• Constructing Portraits opens at 5pm on Friday, July 31 at the GPP gallery at Alserkal Avenue in Al Quoz, Dubai. The exhibition is free to attend
