Wāḥa, the Arabic word for “oasis”, is an experimental short film built around three elements: vegetation, stone and water and is inspired by my journeys through a variety of deserts around the world over the past decade.

By blending cinema, animation, design, vfx, fine art, advertising and nature documentary aesthetics, Wāḥa shapes a visual language that moves fluidly between abstraction and hyperrealism.
