Midwan, The Palm Forest 2024

Midwan, The Palm Forest

Taha’s forest is composed of seven pillars resembling palm tree trunks. More than 8,500 spinning tops cover the surfaces of the sculptures. Using the palm tree as its central motif, the artwork symbolizes the artist's country and city growth.

Midwan, Growth 2023

Midwan, Growth

"Growth" explores a dialogue about self growing. It examines and captures the growing experiences and challenges represented in the form of  the spinning top game and visuals it in a the palm tree trunk shape to translate it into a visual representation to engages viewers in the journey of challenges we go through to grow. 


The artwork is thoughtfully designed to be mimicking the form of a palm tree trunk as an architectural column. This design choice pays tribute to the historical use of palm tree trunks as essential structural columns in the region's architectural history.

Midwan, Stability 2022

Midwan, Stability

"Stability" symbolizes the imperative of consistently cultivating one's inner self. It acts as a gentle reminder that self-stability is not a static state but a continuous journey of personal growth and introspection. Taha's masterpiece beckons individuals to embrace this ongoing process, recognizing that self-stability is a journey, not a destination.


This art project delves deeply into the intriguing concept of self-stability. Just as the game remains in motion, only toppling when it ceases to spin, Taha posits that individuals must embark on a perpetual journey of self-development to sustain equilibrium in their lives.
