Al Burj Al Mabni

Al Burj Al Mabni means The Constructed Tower. This work refers to the marketed version of Dubai, my current home, against the reality on the ground. Thousands of nameless, faceless laborers have built this city, but they gain no credit for doing so. They cannot move here, they struggle with difficult conditions, sometimes not even being paid their salaries regularly. To be fair, the government does address the problems as they arise, but I still feel they should be afforded some dignity and thanks for their efforts.
