Sayl is a sculptural seat cast from the ground of Riyadh, named after the flash flood that brings Wadi Hanifa back to life a few days a year.

Across its strata of earth and granite runs a single line of mirror steel. On dry days it reflects the sky; when it rains, it carries the water to the roots of a living tree.

A work by Marwane Soumer, Studio Soumer. All works.
