My work is informed by how
contemporary social and political issues and messages are captured and
delivered to the world through text and image. Below are some of the works from my current series in progress, New Saints.
The
pieces include invented calligraphic forms that are derived from
Persian scripts; all recognizable, but not legible and these illegible
texts and columns are accompanied by iconic media images and symbols
unique to each subject.
