00:25What's new this year is that we're going to have a lot of murals.

00:27So I'm talking 3D art on walls.

00:31What's even more exciting about that is that we're going to leave the festival on the 7th

00:36knowing that these pieces on the wall are going to be permanent.

00:40Also another new thing which is exciting us a lot in Lamer that you're going to see during

00:43the festival is that we are transforming the objects in Lamer into street art pieces.

00:51For the general theme of Dubai Canvas, it's the location.

00:54So that was the inspiration for the artists.

00:56So you'll see that most of the pieces are inspired by the beach.

00:59Besides 3D art, there will be other contemporary works such as object art, tape art, inflatable

01:04art and murals.
