Artist Name: Mariyam Imran

About Artist:

My name is Mariyam Imran, and I am a student of grade 8 at Beaconhouse International, Cantt Campus, Multan.

Artist Statement:

This piece captures the breathtaking skyline of Dubai Marina, where architectural elegance meets the serenity of water. Shot at night, the towering structures stand like silent sentinels, each illuminated with its unique glow, reflecting a city that never truly sleeps.

The play of light across the water becomes a mirror of modern ambition fluid, vibrant, and ever-changing. Through this image, I aimed to express the harmony between human-made marvels and nature’s calm, creating a moment where progress feels poetic.

The added text, lighting, and graphic layers are meant to enhance not alter the natural allure of the scene. They symbolise how we interact with urban spaces emotionally, not just visually. This artwork invites the viewer to pause, admire, and reflect on the beauty that arises when design and atmosphere align.
