The Transformative Power of Sculptures and Landmarks in Urban Spaces: The Case of Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia

in archdaily.com: The Mujassam Wattan competition, aligned with Saudi Vision 2030, has been a catalyst for integrating meaningful public art into cities across the Kingdom. By inviting artists and designers to create works inspired by Saudi heritage and aspirations, the initiative fosters cultural expression while enhancing urban spaces. In Alkhobar, the competition resulted in the creation of Alarda and Alkhobar Memory, two sculptures that transformed the citys sea front into a cultural and social hub. These works exemplify how public art can redefine spaces, connect communities, and highlight local identity.
