Opera performance
This is an art project in collaboration with Cranleigh AD who wanted to create an opera performance celebrating Eastern & Western cultures. I joined a creative team from the Royal Opera House - London to produce this opera in response to my calligraphy artwork inspired by Sheikh Zayed’s poem “How Beautiful this World is”.
The masterpiece along with nine other artworks from Sheikh Zayed’s Poetry formed a solo calligraphy art exhibition hosted by Cranleigh AD during Art Abu Dhabi (Nov-2016). The Opera and the exhibition were hosted again in the National Theatre AD for the National Day celebrations in Dec-2016.
