Project Description
Anna Boghiguian’s project is about migration, whether of goods and ideas or the
movement of people in global labour markets. In The Simple Affair that Moved the
World, Boghiguian looks at links between Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, India
and the United States. Through drawings about police and government corruption,
poverty and mass culture, she connects what these places share economically,
politically and intellectually as result of trade, imperialism and globalisation.
