Secret of script: Exploring the Visual Potential of Arabic Letterforms

Secret of Script is a research & speculative project that transcends the written word, exploring the visual potential of Arabic letterforms. Inspired by the tradition of Hurufism, which unveils esoteric and symbolic meanings of the Arabic alphabet, the project culminates in a series of illustrations, a card deck, and an animation piece that explore the zoomorphic and anthropomorphic transformations of letters into flowers, birds, and humans. The project illuminates the mystical dimensions of the Arabic script, inviting the viewer to experience the hidden layers it embodies.
