For over half a century, the adidas Trefoil emblem has transcended time and trends, gracing the feet of athletes, trendsetters and pioneering individuals alike.<\/p>\n

To mark its 50-year legacy and the countless people who have put adidas on the map, the athletic apparel brand has launched a global campaign entitled \u2018We Gave the World an Original. You Gave Us a Thousand Back’.<\/p>\n

With a particular focus in the region, adidas MENA has partnered with a number of influential Arab creatives to shine a light on the brand\u2019s signature designs \u2013 the Superstar, the Gazelle and the Samba. One such individual adidas has collaborated with is a groundbreaking woman of firsts from Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n

Enter Noura Bin Saidan (NBS), Saudi Arabia\u2019s first female Mural Artist.<\/p>\n

Passionate about art from a young age, Noura grew to discover just how important this realm was in society and telling stories.<\/p>\n

But why mural art? “I want my art to be not limited only to exhibitions, but I want everyone to enjoy it and contribute to the beautification and development of the area,” she tells GRAZIA.<\/p>\n
