Make sure to head to Al Khazzan Park to see the work of Saudi photographer, Hussain Daghriri. This is his first solo exhibition outside of Saudi Arabia and is a reflection of a recent six day road trip across the southern regions of the Kingdom.
The journey passed through the Al Baha valleys and the Rub Al Khali Desert – home to the longest road in Saudi Arabia. Then he went on to Al Ta’if known for its historical Souk Okaz, Abha and Jazan, a coastal city known for its culture music and dance. The trip was sponsored by Cadillac.
The images are steeped in emotion as Daghriri manages to bring to life the movements and scenes that he was witness to. He says that he wants to inspire people never to stop exploring and discovering the beauty that the world has to offer.
* Emotion & Motion by Hussain Daghriri runs in Al Khazzan Park, Dubai until February 11.
