Afzal incorporates technology into his practice, producing stunning images and also dynamic NFTs. Pictured here: Reflecity, 2017.

"Having the fog roll into the city during the evening hours is an extremely rare phenomenon in the UAE and I was fortunate to capture this incredible event when I was standing near the Burj Khalifa," says Afzal. Pictured here: Clairvoyance, 2017.

Most of Afzal's works capture sunrise or sunset over the city of Dubai. Pictured here: Lustrous, 2019.

He also depicts the natural landscapes that encapsulate the character of the UAE. Pictured here: Outshine, 2019.

Afzal has used his work to capture versions of the Dubai skyline that no longer exist, thanks to the ongoing and fast-paced urban development of the city. Pictured here: Iconic, 2014.

"Art provides a powerful means of expressing human emotion and experience, and it can be used to communicate complex ideas and feelings that might otherwise be difficult to express," says Afzal. Pictured here: Legends, 2017.
