Waiting For Qatar With Gregor Schmidt

“A camel in the desert, an oil millionaire in a kaftan or a soccer world cup embroiled in FIFA corruption, those are the images most likely to pop up when we think of Qatar.”

Berlin-based photographer Gregor Schmidt exhibits the unspoken ambitiousness of Qatar and its process of building “a bridge between the past and the future.” Throughout Schmidt’s research of the transition, his photos show the nurturing of life currently in the land of Qatar.
