ART Rotana Amwaj Islands is hosting the work of Amal Al Bulooshi under its ‘Seasons of ART’ initiative, which aims to provide budding artists with a platform to exhibit their works and maximise exposure. 

“Each piece of art has a meaning of its own, a different story and a different perspective,” said the 23-year-old artist and interior designer. “I try to present art in various forms with the aim of reaching different types of people.”

Amal’s work went live at ART Rotana this week and will be kept on public display throughout the month.

“Our aim with this project is to stimulate the local arts scene and encourage investment as well as help nurture the next generation of Bahraini artists,” added the hotel’s GM Lillian Roger.
