When Art Meets Futuristic Design! How Cool is the Saudi Exhibition?

The "Antenna" exhibition is now open at UCCA Edge in Shanghai. Don't miss it if you love Saudi Arabia and contemporary art! ✨5 Highlights You Can't Miss: ▫️"Green Antenna" The glowing green installation resembles a signal tower in the desert, symbolizing humanity's eternal desire for connection and communication. ▫️"X-Ray" Series With a medical background, artist Matar uses abstract paintings to deconstruct the texture of the body and society, showcasing the tearing and rebirth in Saudi Arabia's modernization process through the interplay of light and shadow. ▫️"Empty Land" The aerial view of oil facilities is like a surreal geological wonder, telling the story of the rise and fall of a resource-based economy with a calm lens. ▫️"Magnetic" Series Artwork created with sand from the clothes of Mecca pilgrims transforms individual beliefs into tangible collective memories. ▫️"Mirage" The 1:1 scale desert landscape installation model makes you feel like you are in the mysterious landscape of northwestern Saudi Arabia. This exhibition is not only an artistic feast but also a witness to cultural exchanges between China and Saudi Arabia. You will discover a Saudi Arabia full of contradictions and vitality here.
