Online Expo
History
“The open-air exhibition envisaged by Dubai Police and F.man is a classic example of the endless possibilities of art; we are beyond thrilled to see the exquisite art pieces in the heart of Deira Gold Souk and offer this experience to the shoppers and visitors. This would be a novel experience for the tourists and residents to find an art gallery experience in the center of a jewellery shopping destination. Dubai Gold & Jewellery Group is proud to welcome the residents and tourists to the gold souk to enjoy the treat by several artists across the globe ” – Tawhid Abdulla, Chairman – Dubai Gold & Jewellery Group
Does Art belong in a museum or gallery as standard? Not if it depends on the artist F.man. And as a response to the pioneering vision of HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid to transform Dubai in an open-air Museum, she feels empowered to take action on this idea. Alongside her exhibitions in several Museums she often has brought her work in non-conventional places because she believes that Art is supposed to be for everyone and it embellishes our environment. Art has the capacity to be noticed by our subconscious even when we didn’t notice consciously. It opens our mind to new possibilities, and make us dream away. So we start to make connections where we would not have done it before.

Shaikha Salem Al Khayal
Visual Artist
A self-taught artist for few years now, my attention is captured by abstraction, skies and chasing clouds. I get mesmerized with every
single sunset or sunrise, all the different sky colors different locations and views. My goal is put the most abstraction out in the art world and let each individual dive in their imagination and different prospective.
