7X bridges past and present through

Emirati art at Sikka 25

February 3, 2025 11

7X participates in the ‘Sikka 25’ art and design festival, taking place in the historic Al
Shindagha district until February 9, 2025. The group’s involvement reflects its commitment to

being part of various social and cultural initiatives, celebrating the UAE’s heritage and
continuous journey of progress while promoting local talents.

7X’s participation in ‘Sikka 25’ embodies the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin

Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE and Ruler of Abu Dhabi, who declared 2025 as the ‘Year
of Community.’ Through this initiative, 7X reinforces its role in strengthening community ties,

empowering youth, and contributing to the UAE’s cultural landscape in a meaningful and lasting
way.

At the festival, the 7X House (348) is drawing significant attention for its seamless artistic

fusion of heritage and modernity, exemplifying a narrative of the nation’s journey of
transformation that extends from the past into the present. The house features contemporary
artworks by a group of talented young Emirati artists, including Abdallah Al Astad, Hessa

Alzarooni, Mariam Alobeidli, Aisha AlMadhani, and Hind Rais. These art pieces reflect 7X’s
vision to enable a world in motion, providing an artistic experience that celebrates the

movement and evolution of Emirati identity throughout the years.
