PARADISE HAS MANY GATES || للجنة أبواب كثيرة (Copy) Paradise Has Many Gates is a mosque made of steel tubes and chicken wire. Built to scale, large enough to be occupied by a congregation, the mosque follows traditional form. The main space is rectangular, with a dome on its ceiling, on which sits a metal finial topped with a crescent moon. A chandelier suspended from the dome swings over the mosque floor, which is covered with carpet marking the direction of prayer. Arched windows line the perimeter and to one side is a minaret, bearing another finial, which holds speakers to convey the call to prayer, and strips of green fluorescent light. The material of the mosque immediately provokes anxiety, as its steel bars and lengths of wire recall the architecture of border fences and refugee detention centers. The mosque is intentionally cage-like, it conjures images of asylum seekers forced from their homes by conflict, trapped in limbo at international borders. For Gharem it is a broader metaphor for Islamophobia and the prison of identity – hundreds of thousands of Muslims are imprisoned for their beliefs worldwide and for the dangers of religious ideology. The connection of the mosque to an architecture of control takes on particular significance in Gharem’s native Saudi Arabia, where there is little distinction between religious authority and the state. At the same time, however, the transparency of the chain-link fencing connects the mosque to nature and the weather. the building blends with its local landscape in the daytime and glows like a haven at night. At all times the mosque’s interior is visible and open to the elements, and this transparency is political. When it is displayed in West (where mosques are perhaps only rarely entered or visited by non-Muslims), the installation serves to demystify Islamic prayer and practices for the public. Being able to see a place one might only have read about in the media, or understood through stereotype, challenges the pervasive fear of the other that lies at the heart of Islamophobia. Above all, Gharem intends Paradise Has Many Gates to be a space of community connection. The mosque shares the call to prayer five times a day, but people of all backgrounds, of any faith, are welcome at any time. In 2018 the mosque was installed in Canada as part of the Vancouver Biennial, on what had once been Reservation land. The local First Nations community was invited to sing at its opening and display their weavings in front of the installation, animating the site and connecting it to local history. The title of Paradise Has Many Gates references the eight gates to heaven described in the Qur’an, which reflect the virtues that enable entry to the afterlife. For Gharem, the installation is about challenging assumptions and expanding connection between people here on earth. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/1606709944668-IZAT6I9EU3K8A2KOQCG6/7.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates The mosque is a symbol of the power structures that rise above the individual; whether in the form of other brother, father, imam or state. The mosque is at once a free public place, and one where attendance is mandatory. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/1443592893877-16VOY80I61ZJ4VPM6TKQ/3.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/1443221626937-4G46AJK3LNP5RHLY9RCG/CF000714-3.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/1443593011723-UC20SYVJR0EXFMMHQE1J/4.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/c54054f2-1529-4e08-b995-df90e39d50e6/CF000760.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/c230300e-148d-4917-b736-472a9a67bfb8/IA6A6264+copy.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/b0a0f50b-5c68-4233-8afa-1d00eeaab619/Vanier+Park+Vancouver+copy.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/cd863b20-f9ab-48d5-9803-c10ced91f293/IMG_4199.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/920f6882-287b-47a9-85fc-5a08404a8b00/IMG_4200.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/c5b61b36-9276-4809-b4f0-a37d92d960f5/IMG_4201.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/d599ea23-0c34-489a-8246-f1188bc7eef5/IMG_4202.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/7bd8e8a1-b5d7-4d9e-8b4a-34f7d3904fd7/IMG_4203.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/5432b833-bd5d-4b60-bd06-3ec7fce29efa/IMG_4205.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/cb0af803-d00e-4b6e-9b52-8c88621f4530/IMG_4204.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/aa0e8adb-ac01-4f3c-bfe5-dbeb9a66df48/IMG_4206.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/5b5f5dc5-8edd-4d4a-befd-472ab5d50124/IMG_4207.jpg Paradise Has Many Gates http://www.ajlangharem.com/thetoysoldier daily 0.75 2026-06-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/1559011444441-26Z5GL8TC5LVY2NZZSXZ/1.jpg New Gallery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/1559012015634-I02K2QJZKJKCR7Q59ZXY/Snapseed.jpg New Gallery - THE TOY SOLDIER || الجندي اللعبة (Copy) THE TOY SOLDIER || الجندي اللعبة The assassination of the Russian ambassador to Turkey was particularly noteworthy because it took place at an exhibition in Istanbul entitled "Russia in the eyes of the Turks". The incident dispelled the idea of the gallery as a "safe" space and exposed the long-standing link between art and violence; whether it be violence as an artistic theme, violence as a process required in the production of artwork, or violence within the artistic establishment itself. Violence makes its way into galleries in many forms. The museum can be a tool of the state, creating narratives that attribute violence to the past, and turning it into educational material, a tourist attraction or souvenir. But violence is also a source of fascination for many artists, who use it as a subject for their work or even a means in their creative process. Scholars have compared some art schools with terrorist groups, and seen terrorist elements as a kind of performance. The assassination of the Russian ambassador was both an act of dramatic performance and, in its horrific realness and political significance, a rejection of the artistic practice that makes violence safe and academic. The photograph and film that documented the moment added another lens to the incident, framing and interpreting even as the violence unfolded. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/1559011426167-KTK81KRFCI1ZOG4QT3H6/_94623695_hi037871114.jpg New Gallery http://www.ajlangharem.com/mountofmercy daily 0.75 2026-06-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55dd0e0ae4b0e5593db7fcf4/1440556131813-TWS9GI3EMIID4SSJA3BR/mount+of+mercy+1.jpg Mount Of Mercy - MOUNT OF MERCY || جبل الرحمة (Copy) Ajlan’s Polaroid installation Mount of Mercy is part of a larger series of the same name in which the artist has collected photographs, hidden letters and personal objects left at Mount Arafat, a hill east of Mecca, by pilgrims during the annual Hajj. The Prophet Muhammad is said to have given his last sermon at the top of Mount Arafat, also known as the Mount of Mercy. Praying on the Mount is considered to be the most important part of the Hajj Pilgrimage. Visitors to the Mount will see hundreds of photographs on the ground or hidden among rocks, some with messages of supplication written on the reverse, some taken during the Hajj, others clearly brought from abroad to be left here. These ritual remnants are regularly collected by Saudi religious police and burned. In preserving these deposited objects, Ajlan documents this little talked-about ritual and expands it into a depiction of collective faith.
