Product Description

Nasser Al-Salem (b. 1984 in Mecca) studied architecture at Um al Kora University in Saudi Arabia and then expanded his creative talents into his calligraphic practice. His work focuses on the aesthetic evolution of the written word, and pushing the boundaries of an age-old Islamic artform by re-inventing it in non-conventional mixed media forms. Nasser Al-Salem participated in the British Museum’s Journey To The Heart of Islam: Hajj Exhibition [2012] and his work “Zamzam” was acquired by the museum. He participated in the Echoes exhibition at the Nelson-Atkins Museum in Kansas City [2013] and Calligraffiti at Leila Heller Gallery in New York [2013]. Nasser’s work is already in several prestigious collections, including The British Museum, LACMA, and Centre Pompidou in Paris. Nasser is heavily involved in community projects, and has participated in public mural paintings and conducted calligraphy workshops around the Kingdom to include the Free Arts Festival in Jeddah in 2008. Additionally, he is affiliated with the national guild of calligraphers and an active member of the Arts & Culture Group of Saudi Arabia.
