Beyond the towering skyscrapers and modern architecture, the streets of Saudi cities have become a dynamic canvas for artists to express themselves. Street art has become mainstream of late, and here are some of the best ones from around the country.

1. El Seed’s Calligraffiti in Jeddah

An old building in Jeddah’s Al-Balad area has been covered in calligraffiti by celebrated French-Tunisian artist El Seed. The mix of graffiti and classical Arabic painted on a relic of the past is a sight to behold.


2. Riyadh’s Monalisa

Yup, Riyadh’s got its very own version of the Monalisa peeps!
