MUSCAT: Bait Al Zubair in partnership with the Ministry of Education launched the “Wooden Sculpture” exhibition by the fine arts teachers of Al Dhahirah Governorate on January 4 at Bait Al Zubair.
Dr Madeeha bint Ahmed al Shaibaniyah, Minister of Education, inaugurated the exhibition.
Oman’s environment is full of materials that inspire artists in various fields of fine arts. Wood is one of the materials found all over the Omani environment, and varies in terms of shapes, sizes and types, which opens an extensive horizon for studying and knowing its characteristics.
From this viewpoint, there was an idea to implement a training programme for fine arts teachers, to enrich their artistic expertise, to direct teachers’ thoughts to benefit from wood and apply it in various arts curricula, and transfer knowledge related to students.
The idea of the exhibition comes through the participation of the Arts Unit to enhance the production of teachers through programmes and training workshops in which they can participate in the professional development plan for fine arts teachers in Al Dhahirah Governorate.
The exhibition contains 30 sculptural works with various techniques and treatments by teachers.
‘Wooden Sculpture’ continues until February 5 at Bait Al Zubair and visitors can see the exhibition during opening hours from Saturday to Thursday from 9 am to 5 pm.
