After more than four decades, the work of one of Saudi Arabia’s most renowned artists was discovered by accident under the rubble in Jeddah’s historic center.
Hidden behind a maze and mess of buildings, kiosks, and shops, construction workers were stunned to find the large abstract stone sculpture with detailed engravings.
The artwork was discovered during the ongoing Historic Jeddah Revival Project, which plans to redevelop the area to become a hub for business, cultural projects, and a destination for entrepreneurs.
