Al-Maadheed, through the exhibition, attempts to showcase his creative talents on canvases that depict his simplicity and sincere expression. “I am trying to grow up while studying, developing my skills and improving my talent,” al-Maadheed told Gulf Times. The exhibition expresses Maadheed’s diverse creations that strengthen the Qatari cultural legacy with all its richness. The renowned artist added the exhibition will be a qualitative addition to his creative career as it highlights the sublime Arab-Qatari art while leaving a message of motivation to the young artists.
For the past three years, al-Maadheed has been holding one yearly art exhibition. This year’s exhibition has abstract artworks that revolve around circles. “Each painting on display portrays connected circles that represent infinity,” al-Maadheed said adding that every artwork is distinguished with its Arabic touch. “Each artwork here is unique with its distinguished gestures,” the artist said adding that he worked for years to envisage his ideas on the canvases at the exhibition. He said the paintings are influenced by his feelings and thoughts about the world he lives in.
Al-Maadheed’s iconic portrait ‘Tamim Al Majd’ His Highness the Amir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani became a popular phenomenon. The portrait represents an iconic of loyalty and love to His Highness the Amir while becoming an artistic icon expressing love, fulfilment and national cohesion. He has been active while participating in and presenting numerous works of art like character design and branding the major events in Qatar while leaving an unforgettable impact.
Designed by al-Maadheed, the AsianCup mascot embodies Qatar’s culture and natural landscape. Earlier, al-Maadheed's 'Smile' artwork was unveiled by the Supervisory Committee of Beautification of Roads and Public Places in Qatar in co-operation with Qatar Museums (QM) on the Doha Corniche.
