Suhail is the star that once guided pearl divers and set the rhythm of life in the desert. It is deeply anchored in heritage and everyday life.

This painting draws inspiration from the architectural lines of the Natural History Museum and the Sheikh Zayed National Museum. The former is intimately connected to the earth and human history, while the latter embodies the national heritage of the UAE. Together, they create a dialogue between tradition and modernity, linking the roots of the past to contemporary life.

The composition also incorporates the architectural lines of the mosque within the Abrahamic Family House, whose location and symbolism make it a powerful representation of tolerance and coexistence. Arabesque elements are woven throughout the work, echoing Arabic culture and ornamentation. The date palm introduces a vertical rhythm, visually connecting the entire composition, while highlighting its deep natural and cultural significance in the UAE.

Her paintings depict landscapes that convey a sense of wandering through specific environments, inviting viewers to embark on journeys through urban and/or natural territories.

Having studied Fine Art and landscape architecture in Paris, Karine obtained her diploma at ENSAAMA Olivier de Serres in 1999. Since 2009, she has been based in the UAE and is a member of the Emirate Fine Arts Society. Her artwork was represented by Gallery Catherine et Andre Hug in Paris from 2003 to 2014. In Dubai, she held several solo exhibitions with Art Sawa gallery in DIFC from 2011 to 2018.

Her paintings grace both private and corporate collections, including the Abu Dhabi Executive Office, Cultural Programs and Heritage Festivals Committee, the French city of Vitry-sur-Seine, the Colas Foundation, and the West Lake Museum in China. Karine’s artistic practice delves into our relationship with nature, memories, human development, and the practice of painting itself, exploring themes of color, composition, rhythm, and contrast.
Limited Edition Sculpture

In this piece from the Drafts series (2025), Akil Ahmad translates the auditory ecstasy of Arabic musical "Maqams" into a vibrant optical language. The composition features rhythmic, fluid calligraphy in black and white that dances across a background transitioning from a celestial blue to an earthy rust-colored horizon. At the center, a luminous gold leaf element anchors the movement, serving as a focal point for the intellectual and philosophical depth Ahmad finds within the Arabic letter.

What distinguishes this specific edition of 25 is its unique sculptural format, developed by Rizq Art Initiative. The metal substrate has been physically manipulated and contoured, giving the artwork a three-dimensional, wave-like presence. This tactile form reflects Ahmad’s modern search for a language that captures the fleeting moments of sound, transforming mixed media on metal into a dynamic, "frozen" melody
