Shh...It’s the Dokha Hitting, oil paint on canvas, 200 cm x 150 cm, 2025.
For sale.
‘Yo guys, I just came back from the Emirates and brought back this goofy-looking pipe and strong Arabic tobacco. It’s called Dokha, try it,’ I said to my Dutch friends during a party after coming back from visiting my parents in the United Arab Emirates.
I felt strange when my friends took a hit from this pipe I brought back from a place I called home for ten years. A flash came over me as this crossover happened between life in this Western world and life in the Middle East.
Oh, right, shh, it’s the dokha hitting.
