Retro Journey: A Tale of an Endless Deja Vu

As a digital artist, my work revolves around the exploration of urban environments and the dynamic interplay between culture, technology, and the ever-evolving cityscapes of Saudi Arabia. In my latest project, I present three 3D rendered looping videos that take the viewer on a mesmerizing road trip from Jeddah to Riyadh, immersing them in the vibrant synthwave and retrowave aesthetics inspired by the 1980s.

These videos capture the essence of a journey through time and space, showcasing the iconic skylines of Jeddah and Riyadh. Each video offers a unique perspective, highlighting different angles and transitions from sunset to midnight, featuring the striking imagery of an outrun sun and a full moon. The neon-infused visuals and nostalgic color palettes aim to evoke a sense of both familiarity and futurism, bridging the past with the present.

My creative process involves meticulous 3D rendering techniques, where I blend traditional artistic principles with cutting-edge digital tools. By leveraging the power of modern technology, I strive to create immersive experiences that resonate with the viewer on multiple levels.

The inspiration behind my work stems from a deep fascination with the cultural and technological transformation of Saudi Arabia. The ever-changing urban landscapes and the ways in which people relate to their cities are central themes in my art. Through my videos, I aim to celebrate the rich heritage and rapid modernization of Saudi cities, inviting viewers to reflect on their own experiences within these spaces.

Ultimately, my goal is to create art that not only captivates the senses but also provokes thought and dialogue about the intersection of environment, culture, and technology in contemporary Saudi Arabia.
