Art in Balad

I'm not really sure what this is meant to represent, but it was on display in one of the Balad neighborhoods. Maybe it was left over from the Jeddah History Festival that we just missed by a day.

The skewed building at rear is not part of the display -- that's just the way it looks!

Really interesting. It looks like a shopping back or a big lock.

How fascinating! What is it made of, do you know? It actually contrasts nicely with the adjacent buildings. Very crisply captured. VV
