French-Tunisian eL Seed Is Literally Transforming Slums in Ajman
French-Tunisian artist eL Seed uses his Calligraphy to decorate old and run down buildings, thereby giving beauty to slums in most cities. eL Seed’s calligraphy primarily consists of deep meaningful words of wisdom about life, and motivational quotes, that are crafted with a clear eye for color, and drawn to perfection using captivating patterns.
After finishing many famous projects across the entire Middle East, eL Seed is now collaborating with artists Na7T and Shuck2. The artists are giving Ajman/UAE buildings a makeover, as part of the Ajman Mural Project.
This project – according to Abdul Rahman Mohammed Al Nuaimi, Director-General of the Departmen – has been “launched under the generous patronage and support of Sheikh Rashid bin Humaid Al Nuaimi, Chairman of the Department, from his desire to adopt all innovative projects that create and reflect an exceptional and positive image of the emirate, making it one of the most important tourist destinations in the world.”
The artists have agreed to changing the outside appearance of the Emirate’s buildings, in an effort to make it look more joyful and life like.
Here is some of the work they did on the Ajman Mural Project in UAE.
