Distracted by all the noise, we often forget to connect with the world around us

Emergeast, the first online art gallery for emerging Middle Eastern artists, is hosting a dynamic group exhibition in Dubai called Let’s Take a Moment, which is centred around living in the present and aims to encourage us all to take a break from our screens and fast paced lives to truly connect with our surroundings.

“We’re extremely excited to welcome a set of new artists to Emergeast. Much of our efforts go into searching for ground breaking artists who are shaping the evolving Middle Eastern art scene. We invite our collectors to take a moment to connect and immerse themselves in these artist’s stories,” explained Nikki Meftah, one half of the creative duo behind Emergeast exclusively to MOJEH.com.
