World Art Dubai 2025

I had the honor of participating in World Art Dubai 2025 (17–20 April, Dubai World Trade Centre), the region’s largest and most prestigious art fair. The event gathered more than 400 artists and galleries from 65+ countries, showcasing over 10,000 artworks to thousands of visitors.

One of the proudest highlights of my journey was that my painting, “Women in the Cage of Words”, was selected for the exhibition’s official live auction. Out of the thousands of artworks on display, only a small group was chosen, and my work was among them — a true milestone and source of pride in my artistic career.

I had the tremendous privilege of exhibiting my paintings and calligraphy works at World Art Dubai 2025, held from April 17 to 20 at the Dubai World Trade Centre. Recognized as the largest and most inclusive art fair in the Middle East, this prestigious event presented more than 10,000 artworks by over 400 artists and galleries from 65+ countries, attracting more than 11,000 visitors. The fair has become a major cultural hub, celebrated for connecting artists with collectors, curators, and art enthusiasts from across the world.

My experience at World Art Dubai went far beyond simply showcasing my art. I had the chance to engage with fellow artists, exchange creative ideas, and gain valuable insights into the global art scene. The event was also marked by distinguished highlights, such as the presence of cultural leaders including HH Sheikha Latifa bint Mohammed, the unveiling of original Banksy works in Dubai for the very first time, and the participation of internationally recognized guests ranging from ambassadors to record-breaking young artists.

A defining moment of this journey was the selection of my painting, “Women in the Cage of Words”, for the fair’s official live auction. Out of more than 10,000 works exhibited, only a handful were carefully chosen for this curated auction — and my piece was honored to be among them. This recognition remains one of the most meaningful milestones in my career, reinforcing my commitment to creating art that resonates on a universal level.
