Other topics were inspired by the environment and the region in which each plastic artist lives.
“Creators for Peace, Love and Beauty” is the title chosen by the artist Ahmed for the exhibition because it expresses, according to him, the true message of the artist in spreading love, peace and life.
He stressed the importance of holding such exhibitions in supporting the artistic sense of artists and exchanging new views on different artistic styles and schools.
