“Visitors to (our booth) will encounter three distinctive Saudi artists: Sami Al-Marzoogi, Raeda Ashour, and Sarah Al-Abdali,” the gallery’s founder Qaswra Hafez told Arab News ahead of the event, explaining that each of the three artists is connected by an interest in place, memory and the continuous reshaping of tradition.

“Expect to engage with evocative explorations of color and form, Hejazi cultural landscapes, and reimagined Islamic ornamentation, ranging from meditative ink works to richly layered narratives and embossed surfaces,” he continued.
