Rub al-Khali or the Empty Quarter is part of the Arabian Desert and the largest continuous sand desert in the world, approximately 1000 kilometers long and 500 kilometers wide, located in the southern part of the Arabian Peninsula and encompassing southern Saudi Arabia as well as parts of Yemen, Oman, and the United Arab Emirates. I had the opportunity to visit the Arabian Desert in 2017 while on an assignment in Dubai, when I also was introduced to Ahmed Talib a Location Scout and expert off-road driver who runs the company Dubai Best Locations. I 2022 when I started working on my second photobook and looked through the images from my visit to the Arabian Desert I realized that I needed to go back and make more photographs – a travel grant from Helge Ax:son Johnsons Foundation made this trip possible.
