The Royal Institute of Traditional Arts, known as Wrth, has unveiled a new artwork at NEOM Bay Airport that highlights cultural ties between Saudi Arabia and Brazil. Titled “Harmony,” the piece is part of an initiative to feature traditional Saudi arts in public spaces and introduce visitors to the Kingdom’s cultural identity.
The 4-meter installation explores connections between Saudi and Brazilian arts through a circular design featuring interwoven fabric threads, geometric patterns and nature-inspired motifs.
Wrth previously presented two artworks at King Khalid International Airport’s Terminal 5 in Riyadh, including “Clay Lineage” in 2024 and “Unity” in 2025. In 2026, the institute completed “Insidal,” now on display at the Al-Fursan Lounge at Cairo International Airport.
Wrth is dedicated to preserving and promoting Saudi traditional arts locally and internationally. It supports national talent, honors artisans, and encourages the study, mastery, and development of traditional crafts.
