Art lovers, we have BIG news for you. From Seoul, South Korea, Arte Museum has now made its way to Dubai in Dubai Mall, marking its first venture in the Middle East. Produced by the well-known Korean digital design company d’strict, this immersive digital art venue promises an exceptional experience for visitors.
Spread across 30,000 square feet, Arte Museum Dubai lets you experience the magic of nature and art with its exhibition 'Eternal Nature'. Divided into 14 zones, the exhibit showcases varied natural landscapes and cultural elements of Dubai. Blending the lines between reality, fantasy, and hyper-reality by using digital technology, the exhibit viewers find themselves at the base of towering waterfalls and strolling beaches as they admire the aurora borealis.
Among the highlights of the exhibition are two new artworks inspired by the Middle East's landscapes and heritage, 'Garden Light of Dubai' And 'Live Canvas Desert'. Garden Light of Dubai is a fusion of Western and Eastern artistry, featuring renowned pieces alongside bespoke content such as Light of Dubai, which showcases the vibrant beauty of Dubai in a surreal golden radiance. Live Canvas Desert offers an interactive experience where visitors' artworks merge with a canvas, animating the mystical landscape of the desert.
To ensure that visitors have the best time at the exhibit, Arte Museum also features the 'Live Sketchbook' exhibit, which lets visitors draw their animals and witness them come to life on the walls surrounded by jungle scenery. While the exhibits are dreamy and immersive, Arte Museum also offers an Arte tea bar, a teahouse experience for visitors to enjoy sweet, tea-based mocktails infused with flavours matching each zone's theme, enhancing the overall sensory experience.
