Common Ground
Ministry of Culture, Saudi Arabia
October – December 2024
In my role as heritage consultant to the Ministry of Culture, Saudi Arabia, I was asked to contribute to the exhibition ‘Common Ground’ hosted in Boulevard City, Riyadh from 18-31 December 2024.
The exhibition highlighted the shared heritage and cultural connections between Saudi Arabia and Iraq. My contributions focussed especially on the historical Darb Zubaydah pilgrim route from Kufa to Makkah, as well as the ancient music of Mesopotamia.
