The Asiri folk vocabulary in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is considered an expression of sublime customs and traditions, values and stories of struggle, which made it rich in diverse and inspiring aesthetic and plastic elements that influenced the thought of the artist who always seeks creativity by presenting topics that carry the scent of history in a cultural form suitable for modern life, and that bear It contains originality and novelty while preserving the features of Saudi identity. In this research, the focus was on adapting the plastic capabilities to replicate the Asiri popular unity in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia as an entry point to enriching contemporary printed works. Through three stages, in the beginning, specific sources for the production of the popular Asir vocabulary are identified, after that the forms and elements of the popular vocabulary are analyzed into primary elements, and finally the popular vocabulary is reused in a contemporary style, relying on a number of artistic considerations. It is a method of repeating the Asir word by using the method of enlargement, reduction, overlapping, overlapping, transparency, and seam in the Asir units while preserving the characteristics of the popular unit. At the end of the experiment, contemporary designs are made in the stencil printing style with some additional printing techniques. The research aims to achieve three basic approaches, which are the approach to demonstrating the plastic capabilities of the popular Asiri vocabulary in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the approach to repeating the popular vocabulary, and the approach to enriching contemporary printed works by linking them to create contemporary designs to be used in printing pendants in the style of stencil printing to enhance national identity. Through these approaches, the concept of the Saudi Asiri folk vocabulary and the various plastic possibilities of the vocabulary were clarified. The research is also based on the descriptive, analytical and experimental approach. Among the most important recommendations is increasing interest in studying the decorations of Asiri art and the artistic and aesthetic values it carries in universities and academic programs by including a curriculum Asiri folk art, and supporting small projects that create contemporary artistic pendants inspired by Asiri heritage, to preserve heritage and enhance national identity among community members.
