About the art

01

Come Together was created by South Korean artist Choi Jeong Hwa, known for his internationally acclaimed style that blends materials from culture and everyday life. Choi’s vibrant, large-scale installations often use everyday objects in innovative ways, creating artworks that are visually striking and conceptually rich. His work challenges traditional ideas of art and invites viewers to consider the ordinary in extraordinary ways. Commissioned by Her Highness Sheikha Moza bint Nasser, Come Together is a celebration of unity and community. It honors the contributions of the local community in Qatar in the years leading up to the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™, highlighting the country's rapid growth and transformation. Through this piece, Choi brings attention to the importance of collaboration, emphasizing the collective efforts of people coming together to achieve a common goal. The installation serves not only as a reflection of Qatar's journey toward hosting the global event but also as a symbol of global connection, peace, and shared celebration. Come Together reflects Choi's ability to fuse art with culture, creating an inclusive, welcoming space for people from all walks of life to engage with the piece.
