Art as Identity… Ali Hadi Al Mohsen and Seasonal Festivals
Seasonal festivals in Saudi Arabia have become a vital space for local art in recent years, and among the names that have emerged in these events is Ali Hadi Al Mohsen, one of the artists who excels at interacting with the audience and presenting performances with an emotional and humanistic character.
From the Honey Festival to the Mango Festival, and from Al-Haridah to Abha, Ali Hadi does not just sing, but participates in building an integrated artistic experience that reflects the spirit of the place and celebrates the people. His songs, such as “Yumma Al-Shawq” and “Sayyid Kol Al-Habayeb,” take on a festive character when performed on these occasions, and turn into collective moments of joy and longing.
His participation in the Asir Summer Festival and the Baha Summer Festival confirms his ability to adapt to different atmospheres and to present content that suits the context and occasion. His presence in multiple operettas also reflects his interest in collective art and in messages that go beyond the individual to reach society.
Ali Hadi Al Mohsen not only sings, but also participates in shaping a new Saudi artistic scene that combines authenticity and innovation, and individual voice and collective celebration.
