About the event
Join artists Sasan Nasernia and Majid Alyousef as they share their creative practice and reflect on Abstract Calligraphy.
Sasan Nasernia began his career primarily as a calligrapher and typography artist. Exploring different avenues in Persian classical and also modern calligraphy, he has since expanded his practice to include painting, print, digital work and installation. Nasernia, who has a BFA from Azad Art University of Tehran; explores a myriad of themes in his work. He is broadly interested in playing with the tension between opposing elements of order and chaos. Sometimes borrowing from traditional Persian painting and iconography, he immerses them in abstraction and ambiguity. He has exhibited his work in multiple group as well as solo shows in Dubai and Tehran. Nasernia currently lives and works in Vancouver, Canada.
Majid Alyousef is an artist, calligrapher and designer based in Dubai and has been practicing Arabic calligraphy for over 30 years.…
