Sharjah [UAE], May 12 (/WAM): English actor and writer Humza Arshad joined multiple award-winning Emirati artist Sumayyah Al Suwaidi and Kuwaiti publisher Mohammed Shaker Jaraq at the Sharjah Children's Reading Festival (SCRF) on Wednesday in trying to find the best ways to explore passion in young people using creative industries.Moderated by keynote speaker and presenter Sally Mousa, the session discussed how the creative industry has the potential to play a significant role in the upbringing of children. "It can expose them to a range of imaginative and educational experiences that stimulate minds and encourage overall creativity," said Jaraq, the vice president of leading Kuwait-based Arabic publishers KshMsh. "Our ability to think, imagine and create is what makes the human mind so powerful".When asked how the creative industry impacts a child's overall development and whether it can foster creativity in them and capture their interest, Al Suwaidi, who's exhibited in art exhibitions and fashion shows around the world, said: "The Arab world should include creative arts and expression in school. It is the schools where the children spend most of their time of the day and they must spend long hours being creative. [Creative arts] cannot be a side curriculum anymore. It has become more essential than ever before [to include creative arts in the mainstream]. It is a way forward".She further highlighted how arts can help tackle issues like bullying among young people. "If I weren't in arts, I would end up punching sandbags to vent out. I am glad that my art today has touched people's hearts everywhere," said the Emirati whose work was auctioned by Christie's in 2012 as part of the Modern and Contemporary Arab, Iran and Turkish Art Part II sale and exhibited at Sotheby's Galleries in London as part of the Three Generations exhibition in 2013.Talking about representation in the world of arts, Arshad, who produces the web series Diary of a Bad Man (2010-13) and Badman (2015-present), said: "It's all about inclusion. The world needs to see different cultures, different people, different ways of doing things and although we have taken small steps, we have a long way to go.""We just need to encourage expressions from different writers from different backgrounds. We need them to share their stories," said the English comedian of Pakist descent whose homemade YouTube videos have been viewed more than 100 million times, making him one of the most popular online comedians in the UK.
