Othman In The Vatican (2024)
Directed by Yasir Bin Ghanem
Documentary · 17m
Othman Al-Khozaim, born in Al-Kharj, loved painting and drawing from his early childhood, a passion he was able to funnel into studying design. It was when he was awarded a scholarship to study in Rome, however, that his talent was able to flourish as he found ways to absorb the wealth of Western art history around him into his own heritage of Islamic art, particularly calligraphy. Back in Saudi Arabla, he worked in television while developing his own expression, becoming an internationally prominent artist. In 2019, he was invited to return to Italy to present Letters without Words, an exhibition of his work visited by an enthusiastic Pope Francis.
