Maps of Connections & Humanity

When we travel to different places, it is the human connections and the people we meet that create those timeless memories. From a world map, to the map of “my kingdom” where the artist captures the essence of the Saudi traditional life of date farming, weaving of colors and

cloth, and the connections to nature and its landscapes. Enjoy these distinct art pieces by Saudi artist Awatef Al-Safwan, who was born in Tarout Island, and has been painting and venturing in the world of art—both locally and internationally—since 1992.
