It also tells vibrant stories of science, creativity and sustainability, and takes visitors on a visual journey that embodies the spirit of unity and harmony between man, the universe and nature.
One of the most prominent shows this year is “The Journey of the Light of Knowledge and Culture”, which transforms the walls of Sharjah Mosque into living paintings that tell the story of harmony between man, art and nature, and pulsates with Sharjah’s rich heritage.
As for the “Environmental Brilliance” show, it draws its inspiration from the sparkling coral reefs of Sharjah, transforming the Al Majaz Waterfront walkway into a wonderful light scene that combines the beauty of the ocean and the clarity of the sky.
This artistic installation focuses on the importance of preserving the marine environment and sustainability, and highlights the emirate’s commitment to sustainable development, while highlighting its ongoing efforts to preserve the beauty of nature.
In the Orbits of Dialogue show, the sand dunes of Al Heerah Beach and light trails light the way to a stunning art installation inspired by the shape of a shell on the beach, in celebration of Sharjah’s rich pearl heritage.
The artwork “Nexus Dream” at Al Hamriyah Beach seamlessly combines art, science and philosophy, inviting viewers to reflect on the relationship between the individual and the universe, and between physical reality and the imaginary world.
