Dreamy Pearl Season

Dreamy Pearl Season Frame TV art at home in a lived-in Kuwaiti living room with a dhow model and a view of Kuwait Bay

This one is one pearl season on the Gulf. Sixteen pieces, from the morning the dhows leave to the day they come home.

Kuwait continues to be a pearl in my life. This is just a historical collection that represents the strength and the treasures found in Kuwait.

Before oil, Kuwait lived from the sea. Every summer the dhows sailed out to the pearl beds and stayed out for months. The divers went down on a stone weight with a clip on the nose. The saib on deck held the rope and pulled them back up. The nahham sang to keep the crew working. The families waited on the shore.

The dasha at dawn, with the families on the sand. Raising the sail. The open Gulf. The nahham singing at the bow. The dive, the oyster bed, the saib hauling the rope. Opening the oysters, and the first pearl in an open hand. A night at anchor under the stars. The squall. The tawwash rowing out to buy. Weighing the pearls. Three dhows sailing home. Al Qafal, a boy running into the water to meet them. And the pearls laid out in the majlis.

Sixteen pieces.
