The Riyadh Airports Company and the Royal Institute of Traditional Arts have inaugurated the “Our Heritage, Our Identity” mural at the King Khalid International Airport.
The mural highlights the pillars of various civilizations with 401 bricks that were made by the members of the delegations participating in the 45th session of the UNESCO’s World Heritage Committee, which was held in Riyadh in September.
The mural encompasses art from 25 countries and wishes to embody interdependence, and highlight heritage and civilization. By displaying it at the airport, visitors and passengers will be able to view contributions of traditional arts from so many countries in one place.
Also present in the mural are several traditional Saudi arts, including the Sadu, Taif, and Hasawi Bisht.
