Hegra Archaeological Site

Artwork: By David Popa at the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Hegra, AIUla, Saudi Arabia, 2024

Amazing ephemeral earth fresco created by David Popa (@david_popa_art) for the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Hegra (al-Hijr / Madā ͐ in Ṣāliḥ), located in AlUla, Saudi Arabia. David Popa wrote this about the artwork: “It is my largest and most challenging work to date - with each hand stretching over 100 meters in length as they cradle one of most iconic locations in Saudi Arabia. Created with ephemeral, natural materials I am extremely humbled to be part of the I Care campaign which invites the people of AlUIa to be guardians of their heritage and protect the past to build a beautiful, bright future. I am really looking forward to sharing more of the stories and memories of this unforgettable adventure. Stay tuned!”
