📍 United Arab Emirates
The Mohammad bin Rashid Sculpture near the Burj Khalifa and Dubai Fountain in Downtown Dubai is a monumental hand displaying Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum’s three-finger salute. The gesture represents win, victory and love, turning a recognizable expression of Dubai’s ruler into a public emblem. Rather than depicting his likeness, the sculpture communicates through the shape of the raised thumb and fingers. Its bold, open silhouette contrasts with the surrounding high-rise skyline, while including the Burj Khalifa in the frame connects the symbolic hand with Downtown Dubai’s extraordinary vertical scale.
