Noor Riyadh is the world’s largest light art festival, transforming the city into an open-air gallery as part of the Riyadh Art initiative. The 2022 edition, themed “We Dream of New Horizons”, featured 190 works by 130 artists across 40 sites, exploring light as a medium of transformation and connection.

Working alongside Kamel Mennour, I curated and produced the participation of 11 internationally acclaimed artists, including Jennifer Steinkamp, Arne Quinze, Jean-Michel Othoniel, SPY, Grimanesa Amoros, and teamLab.
