Sharjah Calligraphy Forum Showcases Arabic Letter Sculpture
An article discusses the exhibition "Between Them" by Lebanese artist Nada Mohammed, held at the University of Fine Arts in Sharjah as part of the Sharjah Calligraphy Forum activities. The exhibition focuses on sculptural arrangements of Arabic letters, integrating the letter into artworks that go beyond traditional linear context, leveraging the aesthetics of form and visual dimension to depict the movement of the letter between earth and space. It features four works based on various sculptural components arranged around a vertical axis, emphasizing the concept of balance as an unstable relationship between opposing forces such as heaviness and lightness, while exploring the relationship between tradition and contemporary art. The exhibition illustrates how the Arabic letter can transform from a unit of reading into an abstract sculptural force through a structure that varies between density and lightness, relying on a steel framework. Nada Mohammed, a researcher and artist specializing in Arabic calligraphy, sculpture, and printmaking, explores concepts of memory, identity, and the relationship between language and material through her contemporary works.
