Career
His artwork includes Blind Ants[2][3][4] and Connection.[5]
A key aspect of Al-Attawi's artistic narrative lies in his engagement with Saudi cultural heritage, as in the artwork Al Nourhah Pillars (2021), featured at the Diriyah Biennale.[6][7][8]
Al-Attawi's work extends beyond the realm of aesthetics into societal issues. Maze of Delusion[9][10][11][12] employs approximately 800 cement barriers, originally symbols of defense against terrorist threats to convey Riyadh's historical narrative and transformation within the context of contemporary art.[13]
Dwelling (December, 2020) is an exhibition in which Al-Attawi featured as an artist.[14]
In 2016, Al-Attawi co-founded Wasm Studio, an artistic and cultural community hub based in Riyadh, with contemporary Saudi artist Saad Howede.[15]
