“I couldn't know about my culture, my history, without learning the language, so I started learning Arabic - reading, writing. I used to speak Arabic before that, but Tunisian Arabic dialect. Step by step, I discovered calligraphy. I painted before and I just brought the calligraphy into my artwork. That's how everything started. The funny thing is the fact that going back to my roots made me feel French.” KnowsFeelsWritingMadeFactsUsedCultureReadingSpeakLanguageStepsRootsFunny ThingsArtworkDialectReading WritingCalligraphy Author:eL Seed
“I've seen it personally that people have a natural sensibility to Arabic script. I don't know it if it's because of the shape, I don't know what it is in this script that makes it so universal. But even if you don't understand it, you still have this feeling; you can feel the piece of art in front of you.” PeopleIfsKnowsFeelsArtStillsFeelingsNaturalPiecesFrontsShapesUniversalScriptsSensibility Author:eL Seed
