A dream weekend scene… This is the Abu Dhabi-born, New York-based photographer, filmmaker and musician Farah Al Qasimi and her perfectly complementary pup, photographed for the spring/summer issue of Elephant by Alicia Mersy. Included in our feature on the new guard redefining the spirit of New York City, Al Qasimii makes work that is both mellifluous and discordant. It centres on New York in various ways, questioning who really defines a place, and for whom. Read her interview with Louise Benson, and discover the other four voices setting the tone for the Big Apple, in Issue 45.
