Echoes of the Familiar

Echoes of the Familiar

Echoes of the Familiar exhibition explores the concept that home transcends mere physical space, embodying a tapestry of memories intricately woven into its very walls. It is within these confines that the echoes of laughter from childhood games intermingle with the remnants of disagreements and tears shed upon pillows. Each drawer brims with knick-knacks whose purposes remain elusive yet evoke nostalgia. The scent of maternal cooking and the rhythmic snoring of a father create a comforting ambiance, while the presence of a grandmother before the television grounds us in familial continuity. These shared experiences resonate universally, forging a collective nostalgia for "al zaman al Jameel

Tafasahu: Make Room

Tafasahu: Make Room

Tafasahu: Make Room is an exhibition that showcases a commissioned installation by Saudi architect and artist, Nada AlMulla, which invites you to enter as a guest—to pause, gather and reflect on the conditions of belonging within the context of the traditional Majlis, Arabic for "gathering space." Beyond being a place to receive and host guests, the Majlis has been a vessel for the transmission of knowledge and heritage. The installation deconstructs this space into its essential elements while centering stories, memories and subtle traces of everyday life that animated it: conversations shared over coffee, the lingering scent of incense, the rhythms of gathering and departure.

In Praise of the Artisan

In Praise of the Artisan

Despite the devastating effect of mass production, industrialization and the related decline in quality and aesthetics, as well as a low status of crafts compared to the fine arts, the last decade has shown encouraging signs of a new revival and interest in contemporary practice of traditional Islamic arts and crafts around the world. Museums are beginning to treat Islamic art as a living tradition by connecting Islamic art with craftspeople and their workshops in order to help make more sense of their historic collections. Moreover, researchers are increasingly taking interest in traditional craft as living practices and basing their research on the experiences of professionals in these are
