Arabic Calligraphy is a sacred art. It is the highest art form along with the recitation of the Quran in the Islamic world.

As new cultures came in contact with Arabic script they adapted the writing style and added unique fonts or styles to Arabic script.

The focus of my work is to establish a movement to produce genuine work of art in order to seek a deeper meaning of sacred.
