Dubai, United Arab Emirates (CNN) – Each region has its own stories and legends that have gone from ancestral languages to the imagination of children, some of which can be a hardening of the story's reality of its pages, including what which can be the foundation of imagination or beliefs.
One of the legends of the ancient Hejaz region has been reincarnated, sparking the creativity and imagination of Lebanese artist Ali Shaaban and Saudi artist Khalid Zahid.
Legend has it that the number of domes in the Hijaz region was one of the signs used by locals to "show their wealth and social prestige". Therefore, the two young men decided to play this legend and build a dome measuring up to 4.7 meters, in order to explain the relationship between the man and the different meanings of the Gold and religion.
The domes dome near one of the neighborhood houses "domed domes" reflects two different dimensions. It presents images of people dressed in a white dress and various turbans, plunging into a permanent movement to achieve something, "gold". They try to touch the crescent.
Shaaban pointed out that the work on the dome took "almost three months", from the stage of researching information and the use of specialized expertise in turbans' history and through the stage of photography and construction.
The project of "domestication of domes" can be compared to the ceiling of the church of Sistina, painted by Michael Angelo in the Renaissance, but Shaban explained to CNN in Arabic that the idea of drawing on the domes Inspired from "ancient Greek art".
The interior of the dome has transformed the ancient concept of modernist folklore with a contemporary approach, as well as the formulation of social symbols, which have played a key role in shaping social and religious values.
