If you have ever wondered what goes on in the life of a modern-day Saudi creative, let artists Bassam Alkhulifi and Saud Alrasheed of Ghazlah Studio, singer Mishaal, chef Nawal AlKhalawi, illustrator Norah Sahman, and photographer Tasneem AlSultan show you that and much more. Each day, take a peek into their lives as they walk you through their day, sharing all the sights, sounds, fragrances, and flavors that make Saudi Arabia their dream home. Each video serves as a personalized love letter to the Kingdom, highlighting the maker’s favorite spots in the country and sharing how Saudi Arabia and its people inspire them in big and small ways.
Since the birth of Vogue Arabia, our annual Saudi Issue puts a spotlight on the best of the country’s fashion, people, and culture, inspiring its citizens to contribute to the Kingdom’s future. Now, in tandem with our latest issue, Vogue Arabia’s digital series encourages all its Saudi readers to share their views of the country via Instagram, under the hashtag, #SelfPortraitofSaudiArabia.
