Dubai: MRK Contemporary Art Gallery, established in 2022 to promote local creativity, is shining a spotlight on Emirati child artists at World Art Dubai (WAD). The gallery’s curated showcase aligns with its vision: Emirati Art in Every Home.
On display are works by prodigiously talented youth—Aisha, Maitha, Hamdan, Rodha, Hessa, Amna, Saeed, and Creaye—whose early passion for visual storytelling replaces screen time with sketchpads and imagination. Their portfolio spans drawing, caricature, painting, portraiture, and digital design, rooted in tradition but brimming with contemporary flair.
The Emirati child artists exhibit reveals extraordinary technical skill and heartfelt expression. Visitors will experience art that channels heritage through a youthful lens—bringing fresh perspectives to cultural identity. These children aren’t simply painting pictures; they are weaving stories with brushstrokes.
