A.R.M Holding, in collaboration with Art Dubai, has announced the launch of a public art project titled "We Emerge Stronger" — a commission inviting an artist or artistic team to create a permanent sculptural work in the HUNA garden of the H Residence development in Dubai. The initiative reflects both parties' commitment to supporting the cultural scene and embedding art in public spaces.
The project draws its title and inspiration from a statement by His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the State, may God protect him, with all its connotations of social cohesion and the capacity to overcome challenges through a collective spirit rooted in trust, optimism, and shared endeavour. The commission aims to translate these values into a lasting creative work that engages with its surroundings and audience, enriching Dubai's urban and cultural landscape.
The initiative is open to artists residing in the UAE, the region, and internationally, as well as partnerships between artists and galleries, provided they have experience executing permanent artworks or outdoor projects. The submission period runs until 25 July 2026. Full details and the artist brief are available at: https://www.artdubai.ae/a-r-m-holding-public-art-commission/
Mohammed Saeed Al Shehhi, Chief Executive Officer of A.R.M Holding Group, affirmed that culture and the arts represent a fundamental pillar in building communities and enhancing quality of life, noting that this project embodies a vision centred on integrating creativity into the fabric of daily life and providing artists with the opportunity to produce distinctive works that leave a lasting impact on the public realm and contribute to the city's cultural identity.
For her part, Benedetta Ghione, Executive Director of Art Dubai Group, said: "This partnership reflects a shared commitment to supporting artists and developing Dubai's cultural environment," adding that the project represents an opportunity to add a new artwork to the emirate's permanent cultural landscape, reinforcing its standing as a global hub for creativity and cultural dialogue.
