Mal Lawal 3 Notebook - Purple Door

This A5 160-page notebook comes with a cardboard cover depicting a gorgeous purple door decorated with floral motifs. Once upon a time beautiful doors like this adorned the entrances of many a house in Qatar, but today they are a rare sight. Aisha Fakhroo, the artist that created the original painting depicted on this notebook, is passionate about documenting the heritage of old Qatar. Mal Lawal, Arabic for “from the old days,” is Qatar Museums’ community-led contributions shaped biennale, that draws a connection between the old – the private collections that exist in Qatar – and the new, the original works of art being created by Qatari artists today. While the exhibition promotes the importance of acquiring and developing a personal collection that will benefit future generations, it also offers citizens and residents unique souvenirs reminiscent of the old days.
