The events' central thesis is their celebration of diversity and creativity, melding the natural with the man-made and the traditional with the avant-garde. They're an artistic dialogue that spans genres, mediums, and cultures, set against Dubai's cosmopolitan backdrop. The impetus for the events stems from a desire to create a vibrant platform where art transcends boundaries, encouraging a dialogue between the artists and the global community that Dubai so richly embodies.

The inspiration comes from the mystical allure of the desert—its vastness, mystery, and ever-changing hues mirror the dynamic nature of art itself. This notion of transformation and transcendence is reflected in the works of Veronique Guerrieri, Eddy Maniez, Daniel Gastaud, and Alec Monopoly, each artist bringing their unique vision and voice to the collective narrative.

Guerrieri's gold collection explores the interplay between light and shadow, materiality and spirituality; Maniez's pointillist sculptures challenge perceptions of space and detail; Gastaud's feather artworks capture the ephemeral beauty of flight and independence, while Monopoly's vibrant street art injects a raw, kinetic energy into the mix, bridging the gap between high art and urban expression.
