The centrepiece of the UAE’s official 49th National Day celebration is being transformed into an art installation.

Called ‘The Seed,’ the work is a kinetic experience that goes on display from today until the end of January.

It’s located within Jubail Island’s mangroves in Abu Dhabi.

The display features light and music, inspired by the National Day festivities.

Tickets cost AED 30 for adults and AED 15 for visitors under 17.

The proceeds will go towards a mangrove conservation project.
