Workshop in Beirut – 1st edition

The idea came from a very good friend of mine.

Last year, he asked me: “Hey Hicham, why don’t you come over here and teach?”

My answer was fast and clear: “Let’s go !!! “

Since then, we have organized already 3 events this year and the fourth is already scheduled.

It is a great honour and pleasure for me to travel over to Lebanon and teach about my passion. The way I teach differs from traditional calligraphers. I listen a lot to my students and adapt myself to their objectives.

It takes years to become a very good calligrapher but only few hours to start having fun and enjoying the pleasure of this practice.

My idea is to show that light that will give people motivation to work hard. When students see what they can do after a few days, they want to learn more…

Long story short, please enjoy the few pictures below.

2018 – Exhibition in Copenhagen

It has been a long time since I have organized an Exhibition.

This time it is in Copenhagen where I currently live and it will last the full month of November.

I would like to thank Fritz, a brillant musician that offered me the possibility to do so. I helped him design the cover of his new CD and in return asked me to take part of the inauguration of his new CD release.

In this exhibition, I am showing a variety of calligraphic pieces.

  • Modern calligraphy with a lot of colours and wide lines
  • Zoomorphic calligraphies
  • Figuratives creations with portraits and the Little Mermaid from Copenhagen
  • Photographies of Jewels that I designed

During the opening ceremony, I also offered calligraphies of names that the public could choose. Live demo are always a good way to share my experience. When people see how the different pen are used, how the imagination creates new shapes, they really look at my creation with another eye.

I would like to thank all the persons who came for this sharing event, colleagues, friends and unknowns curious to see more about Modern Arabic Calligraphy.

I will definitely organize more of these events.

Hicham
