The College of Art & Design at Dar Al Uloom University hosted an exhibition to showcase their students’ several innovative and creative work in January.
The two-day event included students’ work in painting, photography, furniture design, interior design, pop art and installations.
Several students reflected Saudi culture and tradition in their designs, including a Najdi theme. Some had 3-D illuminations, while others used abstract designs for furniture.
With themes ranging from society to good vs. evil and the good ol’ food truck corner, the exhibition drew in a large crowd of art lovers.

The black balloons represented people’s words.
This art portrayed that people’s words are like rocks, you either carry them on your back or you use them to build a bridge to you higher and further.
