An exhibition of original photographs and film of this expedition across the biggest sand desert in the world. The first Westerner to cross it on foot from the coast of Oman to the coast of Qatar was British explorer Bertram Thomas in 1930 with his Omani guide Sheikh Saleh bin Kalut. The second was British explorer Mark Evans in December 2015 with two young Omani guides. This exhibition traces both journeys - the camels, the storms, the discoveries, the psychological challenge.
