Omani artists with disabilities are changing the art world by turning their challenges into creative fuel. Through passionate paintings, they share their stories, dreams, and thoughts on social issues, making a big impact on Oman’s art scene and proving that art knows no limits.
The ‘Adati Hayati’ group in Oman is leading the way by showing that disability isn’t a roadblock to creativity. Instead, it encourages perseverance and unique artistic exploration. The collective has demonstrated that disability is not a barrier to creativity but rather a catalyst for perseverance and artistic exploration.
This initiative is the first of its kind in Oman, providing a platform for artists to express themselves and challenge perceptions. The artists within this group are proving that art is truly for everyone, regardless of physical limitations.
By displaying their artwork at well-known places like Al Seeb Mall, the Royal Opera House, and Al Mouj Muscat, the artists shared what they wanted to say through their art with many people. Their pieces are beautiful to look at and send strong messages about humanity and society that touch people’s hearts and minds.
Their work is not only visually compelling but also carries a profound humanitarian and social message that resonates with audiences. Through their exhibitions, they’ve managed to spark conversations and promote understanding and empathy.
Afrah bint Khalfan Al Naabi feels that being part of ‘Adati Hayati’ has given her valuable support both professionally and emotionally. She shared that being in this group has given her a supportive community and a way to express herself through art. This has also helped her improve her skills and feel more sure of herself.
Afrah’s experience highlights the importance of community and support in fostering artistic growth. Being part of a collective has not only honed her skills but also boosted her confidence.
Hassan bin Issa Al Raisi, who is a deaf artist, explained that painting helps him show his feelings and deal with challenges. After learning how to mix colors in the United States, he is eager to share his artwork with everyone to spread the heartfelt art he loves.
Hassan’s journey exemplifies how art can transcend barriers and facilitate communication. His dedication to sharing his work underscores his belief in the power of art to connect people.
Mundhir bin Khamis Al Rahbi, another artist from the deaf community, remembers how much he loved painting and taking photos as a kid. His passion grew through training programs both in Oman and other countries. Mundhir says that art has become a powerful way for him to express himself, and showing his work in exhibitions has made it easier for him to connect with others.
Mundhir’s story emphasizes the transformative power of art in fostering self-expression and social connection. His involvement in exhibitions has not only showcased his talent but also strengthened his ties with the community.
The increasing presence of artists with disabilities in Oman’s art scene shows that the country is dedicated to helping talented people and supporting groups that are often overlooked. This effort strengthens the idea of empowering people in society and makes people more aware of how valuable human creativity is.
This initiative underscores Oman’s commitment to creating an inclusive and equitable society. It also highlights the importance of providing opportunities for marginalized groups to thrive and contribute to the cultural landscape.
