Launched by Dubai Culture and Arts Authority, SIKKA is an annual exhibition hosted this year at Al Fahidi Historical Neighborhood that features an entirely commissioned programme of visual art projects from Emirati and locally-based artists across the Emirates, and thus providing an opportunity to experience homegrown creativity at its liveliest and best, in the heart of Dubai.
SIKKA 2014 runs until March 25, 2014. Here are some of the photographs I snapped during my visit. Don't miss out on checking it out!
