The King Abdulaziz Public Library hosted on Sunday a cultural event on graffiti art.

Titled "My Story with Graffiti Art," the event featured visual artist Noura bin Saidan, who discussed her journey in the world of graffiti.

Bin Saidan's interest in visual art began in 2009 when she started creating murals to enliven the streets of Riyadh. During her master’s studies, she discovered a passion for shaping, coloring, and beautifying street murals.

Her notable work includes a mural on King Khalid Road, completed over four months. Her most famous piece, the "Mona Lisa" of Riyadh Boulevard, was selected by the Riyadh Season Committee to become a landmark of the boulevard.
