A Trace of Saudi Memory

About this event

“A Trace of Saudi Memory” is an interactive art workshop celebrating national identity by drawing inspiration from traditional patterns and motifs from different regions of the Kingdom and reinterpreting them in a contemporary artistic style on plaster murals. The workshop transforms plaster from a raw surface into a space that carries a visual “trace” inspired by Saudi heritage. Participants explore a collection of decorative elements inspired by Saudi architecture, doors, windows, textiles, and folk arts, then incorporate them into their own designs through drawing, engraving, relief carving, and sculpting on the plaster surface. The workshop celebrates Saudi National Day by using art as a means of expressing belonging and pride in national identity, creating a visual dialogue between the authenticity of Saudi ornamentation and the spirit of contemporary art. This workshop is suitable for participants aged 16 and up
