Oman Across Ages

We are delighted to introduce our work on Oman Across Ages, an epic cultural legacy located in Nizwa 🇴🇲. Envisioned by the late His Majesty Sultan Qaboos bin Said al Said, the museum narrates the story of Oman's rich history and its 50-year renaissance.
In collaboration with @event_comm, we have spent the past five years crafting over 50 media pieces for the museum, including interactive exhibits, documentaries, animations, and immersive experiences. The media pieces range from complex and enormous linear media to interactive exhibits and games.
The museum's massive scale is a result of its unique location in the desert, offering an unlimited space to tell the story of Oman. Indeed the landscape of this beautiful country played a crucial role in our storytelling.
Over the five years, we have filmed in deep caves, rainforests, mountains, and remote islands and photographed over 300 Omanis of all ages from each of Oman’s governorates.
Our journey involved deep cultural immersion and collaboration with local talent, cultural institutions, subject experts, and the Omani community.
"An understanding of media design at an architectural scale and a commitment to a unique culture to tell its story are both essential to this project," says Ben Townsend, the project director at Squint/Opera.
Oman Across Ages is set to become an extraordinary legacy that will impact the nation for future generations. Squint/Opera, in its extensive tenure on this truly immense project, has been deeply privileged to contribute to an epic legacy.
