dimension that is concerned with contemporaryart and the knowledge movement. Where was established in 2017 AD in the city of Abha in the south of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia by two artists (Saeed Gabaan, Hatem Al
Ahmad) Where they created an integrated artistic environment that focuses primarily on keeping pace with contemporary life and the subsequent sustainable development of knowledge enrichment. This is done by offering the studio space and its techniques within programs concerned with the arts, such as workshops, exhibitions, and technical cooperation

The knowledge possessed by Bedouins is an interesting aspect, clearly reflected on the principles of adaptation in the most difficult living environments. in a manner that takes the desert as a mysterious spot through which we can understand the contradictions that manifest among many examples such as mirage and oasis.Within a contemporary visual form depends on the interaction between light and sand.In a way that takes from the environment and the state of endeavor to provide security,the elements of which are to reveal aspects of the knowledge possessed by the residents of desert on the locomotion in general.The work forms metaphorical dividing line and virtually secure surroundingsin terms of presence and direction. The circle reflects the current state of safety during the journey, and the stick that represents the direction that places the city of Riyadh as a destination for certainty in arriving without yearning for the nearby swarm.By forming a luminous floor contains sand in the circle, which constitutes an interactive spot that makes the circle floor a drawing space using sand and light, while retaining the light emanating from the stick that determines the destination during the resumption of the journey. In addition of the sound system that reflects the calm of the desert.The work depends on the sensory interaction and the true personification of the sense of security emanating from the circle and the certainty it contains in the confirmation of the destination. The work entrenches trust in inherited experiences and their usefulness, as Bedouin knowledge is embedded by visually documenting them.

The concept of victory and defeat can evolve and take various shapes that are blurry in nature and incomprehensible on the level of estimations that and once the results of victory and defeat are settled. The evolution of this concept depends on the changes and mutations happening in certain aspects of life such as: population density, the nature of people's differences, technology, education, the world's economic situation, etc.. Therefore, the process of understanding the concept of victory and defeat is not predictable, and this is due to the changes in the originality and consistency of the idea. This artwork sheds light on this notion through the most famous and popular paper-and-pencil game of all time ("X-0" also known as "tic-tac-toe") by creating an environment relying on the visual simulation of the game that is based on composition and assembly. This is done by adding to the theory of expansion, the evolution of certain human concepts and, quantitatively, a game chip as a base with a scope that explains the extent of changes resulting in the incapability of anticipating the final result of the game. This way, the simulation will be evoking the elements of the game (the Xs and the Os), and will also summarize the hazy aspect of the settlement between the concepts of victory and defeat.

NULL غير معرف
is an exploration of absence and the unseen, a contemplation of the void in its many forms—physical, conceptual, and existential. The exhibition delves into the spaces where meaning has collapsed or has yet to emerge, inviting viewers to engage with the overlooked and the forgotten. Through various narratives, the artworks explore themes of survival, memory, and transformation, drawing attention to the fragile balance between presence and disappearance. The exhibition reflects on boundaries between life and death, conscious and unconscious states,
while also magnifying the unseen forces that shape our understanding of the natural world. By transforming invisible processes and forgotten histories into tangible experiences, the works highlight the delicate interplay between what is preserved and what is lost, be it through shifts in ecological balance, cultural heritage, or environmental degradation. Absence in "NULL" is not simply a void; it becomes a space charged with potential. Each work
examines how absence creates opportunities for new narratives, questioning the limits of perception and the thresholds between existence and erasure. The exhibition weaves together
stories of fragility—whether it is of endangered species, fading traditions, or environmental destruction—while offering glimpses of regeneration and continuity. Through this exploration,
"NULL" becomes a reflective space, where the void is not an end, but a possibility for new understandings and emerging meanings.

Naff ناف
Existence has a nature full of contradictions that contribute to shaping the opposites we experience, moving us from a state of unified consciousness to a broader understanding of a changing environment with its seasons and characteristics. This existence, with its contradictions, is the catalyst for human actions that contribute to molding and laying the foundation for individual life in particular and a civilization with stable and deeply rooted pillars in terms of inclusivity. Those who venture to different, non-traditional mountainous areas of the world have numerous motivations that form, in turn, a seed or virtual incubator concerned with the idea of access and adaptation to achieve a sustainable social environment. Here lies the contradiction between lifestyles shaped by many factors, most importantly the geography and landmarks of the place, and personal human motives, which are humanly linked to many ethnic forms that turn into human ways of survival and prosperity in environments that take their evident contradiction as the basis for living.
This concept then raises an artistic question about the essence of stability and how human societies interact with this idea within an incubator with dimensions different from the traditional and natural aspects of life. Thus, this idea carries both a philosophical question and dimension about the essence and ways in which humans cooperate with the environment as a whole, taking the environment as a source of sustenance in terms of adaptation and coping with its challenges, turning those obstacles into sources with a positive outlook contributing to a sustainable human environment.

The Calamity
PhiStudio was the idea of two artists Gebaan and Hatem who started from scratch in 2017 First, started from a small room not bigger than 25 meters square. After hard work and personal funding, last, of 2019 we rented a 400-meter square studio. We bought all instruments and tools needed for our art projects, and for whoever needs help in our region. We participated in many art exhibitions.
once we started settling down and being productive, on Friday 13/01/2023 all of sudden in a glimpse of an eye, we found our dream torn down and everything we built had broken down. The studio was burgled and many important things were stolen . Most devices, All backup data, some artistic tools, lab devices, electrical tools , etc .......
Thank you...
