Esquire Middle East featured VOUW's City Gazing Dubai installation, highlighting how the work offered visitors a unique perspective of the city from space. The publication described the 18m x 11m LED installation suspended 8 meters above DIFC Gate Avenue as a rendition of satellite images of Dubai made with LEDs set to music. The article emphasized the work's powerful concept of the overview effect—the transformative perspective astronauts experience when viewing Earth from space. Co-founder Mingus Vogel explained that City Gazing Dubai gives people the chance to experience the 'overview effect'. Running from December 15, 2021 to January 29, 2022, this was VOUW's fourth major City Gazing installation, following Amsterdam, Singapore, and Beijing.
