Faisal Al Rais is an Emirati conceptual artist and photographer with a Bachelor of Arts in Media Communications with more than 20 years of experience as an independent photographer. Faisal is strongly inflicted by the work of American street photographer Vivian Maier. He is often  inspired by nature, and through his photography, he aims to deconstruct, reconstruct, and  highlight the beauty in the simplest things in life. Faisal’s work covers a wide range of subjects photographed in different places worldwide. His  pictures are not acts of mimesis or replication but ways of exploring reality. They are  investigations of the unknown and examine the spiritual and the immaterial world by bringing  conceptual ideas from the sphere of art to photograph. Faisal seeks to inspire those who see his work to look more carefully at the world around them  and discover beauty in unusual places and determined to prove that photography is a medium  as capable of artistic expression as painting or sculpture.
