Share
Dubai Airports has unveiled a new exhibition at Dubai International Airport (DXB), featuring 12 paintings that celebrate the creativity of its artists and reaffirm a long-standing partnership rooted in inclusion.
Located in Terminal 1, the exhibition – in collaboration with Mawaheb, a Dubai-based art studio for People of Determination – invites travellers from around the world to engage with the artists’ unique perspectives and personal stories behind each piece.
The initiative aligns with the UAE’s ‘Year of Community’, reinforcing Dubai Airports’ commitment to social inclusion and creating a welcoming travel experience for all.
Paul Griffiths, CEO of Dubai Airports and a Mawaheb ambassador, said: “The artwork on display challenges perceptions, shifts mindsets, and leaves a lasting impression on the millions of travellers who pass through our airport.
“It’s a powerful reminder that every individual has a unique story to tell, and a voice that deserves to be heard.”
The partnership with Mawaheb, which began in 2017, is said to reflect a shared commitment to inclusivity and accessibility.
The exhibition includes a vibrant mix of abstract, figurative, surrealist, and pop-art pieces. Among the works are Kieran Carter’s ‘Shapes of My Mind’, Reikha Kaplani’s ‘Fluttuante’ and Marwan Al Khaja’s gold-leafed ‘Prezioso’.
