Kite Beach in Dubai currently features a new street art painting created by two well-known local painters. Abdulla Lutfi and Maddy Butcher’s coastal work, in cooperation with Converse, is a bold portrayal of the Dubai skyline and the people that make the city home.
The sculpture, which was unveiled on Friday against the backdrop of the city’s Burj Al Arab, is part of Converse’s Create Next campaign, which celebrates street art as a creative and artistic tool for societal advancement. The artwork celebrates Dubai and the diverse people and cultures that make it such a wonderful place to live, with the two Converse Create Next artists praising Dubai and the diverse people and cultures that make it such a wonderful place to live.
The mural, which features a replica of the city’s skyline, is based on a concept by Lutfi, a determined artist who works totally from memory in monochromatic colorist mural will be on display at one of the city’s busiest beaches until June. Converse claims that the campaign seeks to spread the notion that “every action matter” and that “every artistic effort has an influence.”
