Elevating Community Engagement Through Art and Sport
Overview: In anticipation of the Formula 1 Qatar Airways Qatar Grand Prix, Artistic Business Solution (ABS) embarked on an ambitious project to transform Doha into an interactive, open-air art gallery. Our goal was to extend the excitement of the Lusail International Circuit into the heart of the community, celebrating Qatari national identity while engaging fans and residents alike.

Key landmarks—from the futuristic Msheireb Downtown to the historic Souq Waqif—ensuring diverse demographic reach, including tourists and locals.
Safety and Durability
Our engineering team secured each sculpture to withstand public interaction and environmental factors, maintaining a pristine appearance throughout the activation period.
