this is fascinating! especially the range of shapes you've found . I've always loved 'la' and used it a few times for protest signs as it's so strong in shape. Thanks Joumana!

It does lend itself to that, Bahia Shehab did a whole project on it that you probably have heard of.

I love this. I am studying the overarching idea of Union, in alchemy, herbal medicine-making, meditative discipline, psychology... anywhere it can be found, so this calligraphical representation of union comes at the perfect time. Thank you!

Thank you Jumana!

This letter is always an exciting challenge for the artists, a treasure of inspiration, a quest for the limits between the natural and the mystic and much more.

Your contribution is always so interesting and absolutely beautiful. Thank you again!
