This permanent art collection, curated by government agency Art in Embassies, includes art in a variety of media, including painting, photography, textile, and sculpture by both U.S. and Saudi Arabian artists. The collection seeks to create a dialogue of shared values between the people of our two countries. 

I developed the visual concept for this curated catalogue of artwork, which will be printed and live at the U.S. Consulate General Dhahran as part of a permanent collection. I reviewed the artwork and biographies of 15 artists and conducted research into the surrounding area. From these findings I established visual style with which I designed the full 115 page book for print. As a part of this project I taught myself to understand how to set type in the Arabic language.
