Here's something to violate while you're at it by Ubik

The fabulously titled "Here's something to violate while you're at it" is a new solo exhibition by Ubik which opens on 8th April and will run till 22nd April at Shelter, Dubai.

Inspired by the idea of people's innermost "spaces", Ubik has put together a show that explores our most intimate secrets.

'I tried to capture that sense of space inside us, that compartmentalized place kept hidden even from even our dearest relations, that place that actually defines who we are'. Ubik

Ubik used salvaged materials to create the works for this exhibition and will present the show in Shelter's disused warehouse. This forgotten structure represents another "secret place" for the artist and many of the works are heavily inspired by the secrets of both the artist and the building.
