Calligraphy by WALID Al-AGHA
Walid’s art is known to draw upon the rich tradition and history of his country, and calligraphy – Arabic, Assyrian, Sumerian – prevails. He treats calligraphy as a symbol, as poetry, in his my paintings. AlAgha is inspired from a history enriched with mythologies & traditions of many cultures; he combines calligraphy against a background of symbolism from Syria’s history. Searching for the spirit of the letters, and the colors he uses are usually earthy.
