The Tuwaiq International Sculpture Symposium 2019.
RIYADH — Riyadh Art continues to transform the city into a gallery without walls with the launch of its second initiative Tuwaiq International Sculpture Symposium (TISS).
The 22-day Symposium (Nov. 10 – Dec. 6) will bring together 20 international and Saudi artists to create public sculptures in a live setting. The theme for TISS 2021 is “The Poetics of Space,” exploring the connections between matter and emptiness, light and shadow.
TISS invites participating artists to create mesmerizing sculptures that manifest poetry in motion and create their own space while being in harmony with the surrounding public realm of JAX District, Al Diriyah.
