While in Canada, Meahaal exhibited his work in multiple venues and platforms, collaborated with local artists, facilitated art classes, demonstrated workshops, and won the Emerging Artist Award in 2017. Meshaal was an artist-in-residence at the Berlin Art Institute as part of their collaboration with Misk Art Institute in the Fall of 2022. Also, he was invited by the Chinese Embassy in Saudi Arabia, and the Chinese Ministry of Culture and Tourism to take part of the “Silk Road: Artists’Rendezvous – 12th Workshop for Renowned Arab Artists” in Jingdezhen, China in October 2023. His main practice includes drawing, painting, installation, and mixed media.
Meshaal is now based in JAXDistrict, practices art independently, and collaborates with local artists. His work has been exhibited locally and internationally and collected by private collectors and institutions including the university he graduated from.
