About The Artwork
This piece illustrates a woman wearing a red dress running into the unknown, drawn with the fundamental call to adventure of the Abrahamic faiths written in Arabic calligraphy. The young woman highlights the universality of the message's applicability, while the fluttering dress points to the power and vulnerability of such a choice. The invocation from God to leave the land of your forefathers, comfort and familiarity, and to venture into the unknown lands of the stranger, appears as a message to Abraham in Genesis 12:1: "Now the Lord said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee" نداء للمغامرة, 2020, حبر على ورق, 36X36سم تُظهر هذه القطعة امرأة ترتدي فستانًا أحمر يمتد إلى المجهول ، مُرسمًا بالدعوة الأساسية للمغامرة في الديانات الإبراهيمية المكتوبة بالخط العربي. تسلط الشابة الضوء على عالمية تطبيق الرسالة ، في حين يشير الثوب المترفرف إلى قوة هذا الخيار وضعفه. إن الدعوة من الله لترك أرض أجدادك ، والراحة والألفة ، والمغامرة في الأراضي المجهولة للغريب ، تظهر كرسالة لإبراهيم في تكوين 12: 1: "الآن قال الرب لأبرام ، أخرجك من وطنك ومن عشيرتك ومن بيت أبيك إلى أرض أريك إياها "

Lebanon
Born 1988 in Nashville, Tennessee Currently working from my atelier in Beirut, Lebanon since 2011, I continue to pursue my education and understanding of Islamic Art and calligraphy. Working in the Diwani, Diwani Jali and square Kufic scripts, I use the words to create illustrations ranging from portraits to geometric abstract constructions. The work celebrates Middle Eastern and Islamic culture in addition to focusing on human rights in the post colonial era, with an emphasis on American and western foreign policy. With few calligraphers who use their words to illustrate rather than write, my greatest inspiration comes from Jila Peacock, and Hassan Musa. My aim is to eventually achieve the flawless legibility of Peacock's work while also grasping the visual accuracy with which Hassan Musa illegibly creates his animals and figures, using shapes and strokes inspired by calligraphy. As nearly all of the original work has been sold. I'm primarily selling limited edition facsimile giclee prints, on Saatchi, particularly only those in which at least half of the edition has already been sold.
