IMKAN Properties partners with artist Jack Lee to bring urban art to Abu Dhabi Community

ABU DHABI- Abu Dhabi-based IMKAN Properties has partnered with the award-winning Chinese artist Jack Lee to create an art mural at the newly-opened Sheikha Fatima Park. The project is part of the developer’s commitment to bring urban art to the community and enhance the appeal of the capital’s landscape.

Set in the middle of the Khalidiya neighbourhood, the former park that historically catered to women and children only was transformed by IMKAN in partnership with Abu Dhabi Municipality into the emirate’s first urban lifestyle park, integrating conventional park elements with new components and activities. It also became the first park in the capital with a dedicated area for pets, which is reflected in the new animal-themed mural.

"The project is part of our long-term commitment to bring urban art to the community of Abu Dhabi," said IMKAN. "Having large-scale works of art in the park will not only enhance our city’s quality of place by making it more soulful, but it will also give members of our community the opportunity to engage with art on a day to day basis."

Pointing out IMKAN’s vision to collaborate with local and international artists to bring the best of artwork to the emirate, IMKAN expressed delight
