Making their return to the Sharjah Islamic Art Festival, Egyptian duo Magdy El Kafrawy and Mohamed Abdel Aziz were commissioned to create a second Jedariyah in Al Qasba. Located across the canal from their original work, the artists’ work explores Arabic calligraphy through a contemporary lens by making use of acrylic brushes and paints, ropes and canvas, to present a new perspective on the development of contemporary Arabic calligraphy design and installation.
