We live in Dubai one of the most emerging & growing cities in the world. Most of its buildings, towers, streets and malls, ... even its resorts, parks and countryside have been built recently, and still, the major part of the city is under construction. The entire cityscape is man made and fabricated, it has nothing to do with the real surrounding environment or nature; It's trying too hard to simulate the notion of nature in our minds; Bits and pieces from everything everywhere. Therefore, the notion of nature or landscape has been evolving and changing for the citizens here; What is nature? What is real and natural and what is fake? What and where are our ESCAPES? Obviously the only thing is natural and real there are construction sites; They are the biggest scenery-scape in the city and the most uncontrived places. We pass them every day, live and work next to them, They are in every corner of the city surrounding us and supply us with landscapes.
