This includes works inspired by AlUla's rich heritage of textile and crafts, alongside photography from The Royal Commission for AlUla's archive that depict the surrounding landscapes.Ĭommenting on the project, Nora Aldabal, Executive Director, Arts and Creative Industries for the Royal Commission for AlUla said, "We are delighted to unveil the Safar art collection: a continuation of our ongoing cultural programming, setting the standard for engaging contemporary artists within the Kingdom.

Meanwhile, Farah Behbehani's embroidered textiles serve as an ode to the community of AlUla through a local craft, and Ranim Halaky's 'Conversations through time' is a striking typographic raw steel installation that has been created in collaboration with the community, presenting their voice in sculptural form.Īlongside this, the work of emerging artists such as Stephanie Neville, Sandrah Boutros and Nidanin Woodwork is presented as a contemporary cabinet of curiosities in the Executive Terminal Library. Two sculptures by Shaikha Al Mazrou reference local rock engravings in a deep brick orange resin, while two framed diptychs by Dana Awartani continue the heritage narrative through intricate traditional patterns inspired by aerial views of AlUla's famous heritage sites. Safar's artworks are in dialogue with AlUla's unique physical and cultural landscape. Their paintings all mirror the same underlying square grid pattern (the basis of textile techniques such as Al Sadu weaving: a new addition to UNESCO's List of Intangible Cultural Heritage) but feature different patterns that originate from the varied traditional crafts that span the region.

In a piece entitled 'Our Living Tradition', artisans from Madrasat Addeera investigate the Order of Nature as a design tool and how language is intrinsic to traditional arts and cultures. Speaking to Arts AlUla's vision for a new - and local - creative community, works by the 10 Saudi artists and 6 regional artists sit alongside those by artisans from Madrasat Addeera, the first Art and Design Center in AlUla which offers craft programmes for local artisans.
