The Resonant Shell

The Resonant Shell (الصَدفة) is a new immersive art experience commissioned especially for the AlUla Wellness Festival. Part sculpture and architecture, part soundscape and meditative space, this work offers a transformative experience – bringing the visitor’s awareness into a holistic awareness of the moment.

Explore The Resonant Shell with friends and family, free and open to all from 6:00 – 11:00 pm. This must-visit experience is located within the AlUla Oasis, near to Oasis Square in AlJadidah. We suggest parking in the North Parking area and grabbing a bite to eat at Circolo beforehand.
 

This site-specific installation offers visitors a mini-retreat, a connected physical and spiritual experience, and a moment of deep resonance with AlUla’s extraordinary landscapes. Nestled within the AlUla Oasis, guests will find a tower of mudbrick and fabric connecting the ground and sky.

From a spiralling staircase entering a space of acoustic isolation, visitors can find meditative silence with artistic sound works inspired by AlUla - activated by a human's presence at its core.

Open daily, The Resonant Shell may be visited as a singular experience or combined with new learnings from the classes and talks at the nearby Five Senses Sanctuary.
