As part of the inaugural Art Week Riyadh, "A World of Silence" exhibition creates an open artistic dialogue between Saudi Arabia and Egypt through sculptures showcasing unique visions and diverse artistic expressions from artists of both nations, the Saudi Press Agency (SPA) reported.
Focusing on silence as a powerful artistic language, this exhibition offers a contemplative experience. The sculptures on display encourage a sensory engagement with shapes, masses, and spaces, embodying the fusion of concept and material and showcasing sculpture's ability to surpass the limitations of language, time, and culture, SPA said.
The sculpture exhibition acts as a visual bridge connecting people and places, exploring the emotional and symbolic depths of the art. It invites quiet contemplation and detailed immersion, encouraging interpretations that move beyond surface form to reveal profound meaning, it said.
The exhibition is part of the Art Week Riyadh series of events, which encompasses more than 100 activities in various locations across the capital. It contributes to enhancing the status of visual arts in the cultural landscape, in line with the Kingdom's Vision 2030 towards supporting creative industries and empowering artists locally and internationally, SPA added.
