On 2014 the Ministry of Culture posted a Sail Boat Competition for all creatives in Bahrain , both local and residents to participate by painting a Sail , so that these sails would be attached to sailing boats and used in the Opening Ceremony of Bahrain  National Annual Art Exhibition.

Below are Images of The Location, Boats me and Tamadher painted as a collabration for the Exhibition and also the sails in action.

Firstly, this is an image of the Bahrain Grand Theater where these Boats were shown.

Below is our first Sail inspired by Fish Eye , the colors were picked from various fish eye balls and around the white arabic poetry writen speaking of sailing and prayers. The image next is a close up of the calligraphy.

This Second Sail is a marrige of styles combinig the minimal design and typography of Tamadher and Forms i illustrate as shown below as the the middle sail boat , followed by close up images.

Next, is an image to give you a Scale of the boat in relation of a person.

Below is an Image of Participants perior and during sailing at the Grand Opening of Bahrain Annual Art Exhibition.

I leave you now with a short Clip of us hanging the Sail on the balcony at the highlight process.

ps. it was cold and our entire flat smelled like paint gas but it was worth it.
