Description
This artwork is a tribute to the timeless essence of Ayat Al-Kursi, the greatest verse in the Holy Quran, embodying its profound spiritual impact and unwavering significance. Inspired by the enduring strength of ancient inscriptions, the verse appears as if etched into stone, seamlessly blending with the earthy tones of the Arabian desert.
Executed in Kufic script with a contemporary touch, the composition harmonizes tradition with modern artistry, infusing the piece with depth and character. The earth-toned background enhances the feeling of depth and authenticity, while stone-brown accents create the illusion that the verse has been inscribed in a style reminiscent of early Quranic inscriptions on rock surfaces.
The inspiration for this artwork stems from the ancient rock inscriptions in Tabuk, northwestern Saudi Arabia, where early Islamic-era engravings of Quranic verses were carved into stone. These historical inscriptions serve as a testament to the deep-rooted spiritual and artistic traditions of Islamic civilization, reflecting the timeless connection between faith and craftsmanship.
